It's not that hard, simply prolong the generation until 2030.
Clearly gamers don't want and need PS6, cuz PS5 potential is not yet fully fulfilled as it was PS3 and PS4 in it's latest years. We just started to receive games that are not available on the PS4, and the developers are also fine with the tech now and for the next few years. Economics are also not on the manufacturer's sides. Similar things happened with 7th gen. Economics were bad in 2008, and they prolonged the generation until 2013. In that case however, on top of that PS3 and 360 were showing it's age as early as 2010. And I remember reading articles back then as early as 2010 some developers having trouble with the outdated tech or memory in those consoles. Now the situation is a lot better from that standpoint, which only means that if in such situation you can prolong the generation by some 2 years ? (if it was originally scheduled for 2011) then why not prolong it now when no one is desperate for new tech by some 2 years until 2030 ?
