Microsoft said they were going to do this. But, gamers didn't like it, so they backed off, at least for a bit. I do think that's the direction that both Sony and Microsoft are heading though. I just don't think the transition will be complete until well after the launch of PS6. 

Gamers are stupid we've been know. Console generations are shit. I'd understand the issue for developers since it means much more money spent with testing and optimizing for different iterations of the same console, but for consumers this is the best approach

Well unless you're of one of the guys with strong FOMO who needs to upgrade their GPU every year 

I dunno... I don't think Sony will move into such a frequent hardware revision release, but I think with PSSR, the new low state mode for PS5 and their MAU having a decent share on PS4 still, that they will look to expand the lifecycle of their hardware while still releasing newer hardware.

So I guess, a half-way point to what you're suggesting. At this point, PS5 could remain quite a viable option into 2030, and I think that is perfectly fine.
