Companies don't shoot for low sales targets if they don't have to. It's not good for the stock price. If Sony is saying sales have peaked and they're only expecting 18 million next fiscal year, then frankly I take their word over yours. 

Right now I don't think PS5 will catch PS4 sales and XBox sales are hilariously bad, apparently they sold like 800k-900k for last quarter which is a disaster. 

They are expecting 18 million for this year makes sense since they have nothing big that will move consoles. But like i said no one knows what or how big the GTA6 effect will be and it will be only on current gen consoles not PC  first year. we talking about the most hyped and most  anticipated gamer ever, it  differently has the power to change the trajectory if you don't think so we will agree to disagree, and well find out in a  few years if we are still alive lol.

The fact that they're forecasting a large sales decline even with a NEW super duper graphics PS5 Pro speaks volumes. 

They're not going to match even XBox 360 + PS3 sales (PS5 + XBox Series S/X) from 15 years ago which was 172 million. Or PS2 + GameCube + XBox.
