I guess it's a little different trying to guess ~2 years ahead of time what kind of thermal load other manufacturers solutions will have, and what kind of air flow is needed over the heatsinks they may or may not have, with heatsink fins perhaps orientated one way or another.
If there's any truth to this story, then I'm sure Sony will crack the problem. Even if it took a custom 3rd party device (which I don't think it will). PS5 is probably going to go to 100 million (or more) devices, so where there's the brains and the money there's almost always a solution.
I wouldn't be worried about this if I were a PS5 owner.
