Xbox One X had 1TB (HDD), Series S had 512GB.

Unless Sony wants to position the "standard PS6" as an enthusiast device, why would they want to go for 2TB as the only option? This makes no sense in a market where NAND prices are significantly increasing. Reducing SSD size is an immediate and simple solution. They recently reduced standard PS5's storage from 1TB to around 825GB (which is the original PS5 storage size).

Because game sizes are increasing, my OG PS5 couldn't hold 5 games on it right now when I wanted to move Ghost of Yotei back to it to play the Legends update, I had to move Gran Turismo 7 to the extra drive, it literally is holding 4 games right now and I can't move GT7 back into it.

I would like to see an one 1tb model as an option but I think Sony won't do it to avoid people complaining about having buy an extra drive on top of the already very expensive purchase AND possibly the extra disc drive when they have 6 games and already can't fit all of them there.

It would still be better to have the option but I do think Sony will want to avoid that.

And yet PS5 literally got a size reduction recently as I noted.

They should release multiple options to see which one has the most demand, then phase out the less popular option if it causes any logistics issues. There will always be complainers no matter what they do, but forcing consumers to go for the expensive 2TB model is bound to generate more complaints than giving them more options to choose from.
