Is this like "PS5 isn't doing well, you should say your goodbyes while you can", or "latter comes after earlier" and can mean anything?

Half way between. They want to beat Nintendo to the next hardware release, but they won’t. So probably two more years till the new stuff comes out, but 4 or 5 till it stops getting support and new releases.

There hasn't been enough progression in hardware. It isn't the 2000s anymore. If they release something soon, even within the next couple years, it will perform even worse than the PS5.

Also even if there was a quantum tech leap, if there even appetite for it except among gear heads and enthusiasts? It's not like the hardware is falling apart like a cyber truck in a trail yard or anything
