Sony wants 60fps PS5 Pro “Enhanced” games, but it’s happy to settle for less (www.theverge.com)

Well, okay - here's my reasoning:

I have a PC and a PS5.

If the game is on PC, I would prefer to play it there. It is a competitor, in my household (I'd argue elsewhere, too, but I guess that's an opinion). It is a very useful distinction for me.

There are few games I can only get on my PS5, but that low number does sometimes make me ask why I have a PS5. It is useful to distinguish between the games I can only play on PS5, and those I could instead play on PC, for that reason.

I hugely prefer this world in which Sony releases for my preferred platform, but that doesn't mean it's sensible to say that PC isn't a competitor to consoles and bury your head in the sand because it "devalue[s] pro-consumer behaviour".
