Yeah I don't see there being a value in having a short PS6 generation or flooding the market with more hardware.
Likely the revision Sony is talking about is their pricing model. I don't think the internal hardware is changing. Even a PS6 lite is probably too expensive at $600 if still has 24GB of RAM. I now agree with DF that I don't they will bother make a lite version which would not be notably better than the PS5. The handheld hybrid is the light ($599). Removing all the handheld bits will shave off $99 maximum, not enough to justify for essentially a PS5 level experience, might as well just sell those same people the actual PS5. The alternative hardware is the full fat console ($799) - both sold at loss of like $50 or so.
I suspect Sony will explore new Hardware as Service or contractual models where DRM enforces a monthly payment for those who can't buy a PS6 outright.
So starting Price becomes low, like $199 followed by a $29.99 per month contract (24months) which includes the basic PS+.
Additionally more monetisation like in-game ads
