I have a PS4 PRO, sadly it's on 5.05 but I only use it for PS4 exclusive games as I also own a Xbox One X which has better hardware and most games perform and look better on the One X then the PS4 PRO. But as I only play exclusives on my PS4 PRO I don't fret much about not being able to play backuped games, there's also no homebrew, emulators or anything else besides really that would really make me go and look for a PS4 PRO at 4.55 as I have a PS3 Slim with Rebug which plays PS1/2/3 and PSP titles and a Raspberry Pi 3 and PC attached to my TV which renders homebrew and emulators useless for me on consoles. I also buy most my PS4 exclusives when they are on sale, I never buy games for full price.
I will however leave my PS4 PRO at 5.05 for a few more months but I couldn't care less about playing backuped games but I do understand the sentiment that you should be able to do whatever you want with your console. I also have a Nintendo Switch which I haven't used for months, I bought Breath of the Wild and Super Mario Kart 8 Deluxe which I enjoyed quite a bit. I went also out and bought Super Mario Odyssey but around that time I heard of the Switch being hacked so I've left my Switch at 2.3 untouched ever since. While there's quite exclusives I would love to play on the Switch I think Nintendos prices for games are always steep and they rarely do sales as often as Steam, PSN or Xbox Live I think it's more worthwhile to hack the Switch then a PS4 PRO where you can get AAA games quite cheap after some time on sale.
I've also been thinking of getting a Wii U considering it's fully hacked at any firmware and then I would be able to play Gamecube, Wii and Wii U games on the same console and also run some emulators for older games. While I do know there's Dolphin and Cemu which can render games up to 4K and make them look nice I do feel that those emulators aren't as stable as emulators for older consoles.
