What's the motivation for people to buy a PS5 Pro or a PS 5 Handheld and then a PS 6 if they go day and date on PC? There's a lot of people who have computers, but buy playstation consoles for the exclusives.

That's the self canabilization of their own market that will hurt their hardware sales

Live services will go day and date for sure. First party triple A games will always be Sony Console exclusives - that window might shrink to a year, but I don't think triple A games will go date and date unless they were franchises that were previously multiplat like a Destiny...

In the end, we'll just have to wait and see what they do in the next few years.
