Here is my personal view on the performance crown issue:
I don't care if one or the other console is more powerful, but if you claim one is more powerful compared to the other you have to make a good case for it. One that makes sense.
For Anaconda that case was there:
Microsoft all the time said they wanted to most powerful console again.
The proved with Xbox One X, that they could squeez a lot of power out of a small form factor with clock speeds never seen before in a console.
The 2 SKU console strategy with a cheaper less powerful console and one that is a lot more expensive. Hence you have more budget for performance targets.
For the Ps5 there is nothing so far.
In fact the opposite is true. The SOC was/is rumored to be smaller. The console was rumored to potentially launch earlier. The console could be cheaper than Anaconda.
So If you make the claim Ps5 is more powerful people with knowledge on the technical side of console hardware and limitations of course want more information how Sony is going to achieve that. And in that case a vague, non retrospective verifiable tweet should be taken for what is. Could be FUD, could be a troll, could be a misunderstanding, could be right for the moment, but change, could be correct.
It's not helpful at all.
If you leak, leak something with substance like code names, the actual wording of the marketing message, some actual target specs.
