Yeah, some Sony fans are the most delusional group of gamers. I have tons of discussions with some individuals and they expectations were:

1. PS6 at $699 at most

2. Handheld version won't cannibalize sales of the console version

3. Physical games will still be supported

4. Sony will keep releasing top notch AAA games

But now, every of their expectations is being or will be squashed. Sony won't be focused on gaming anymore when they can make 10x of money elsewhere. And with the world heading towards big financial and societal crisis, so sales of all entertainment related products will tank. PS6 will be the last console made by Sony and I am pretty sure of it.

Haha, apparently I'm a Sony fan now, a proponent of physical media, and a supporter the AAA industry! XD

Nothing wrong with that, but no company wants to support your demand in the next gen era. Digital ownership and decentralized storage, that cannot be shut down as long as users are willing to keep it going, is the future. Sony pushing for live service and not funding as much resources towards AAA will be evident next gen too.
