I'll just be like any sane simple adult
Product to expensive > i wont buy
And let the market dictates its price,if market decide to support the price and buy which leads to Sony keeping the price then nothing can be done as that what the market decides.
If mass market shows Sony that this is not the price point they are willing to buy, hopefully that will make Sony reduce their prices by themselves.
Simple as that

While I don't outright disagree with your basic point, you're falling a bit into a fallacy that the PS5 Pro is a tentpole product for Sony. It's not. Neither was the much more affordable PS4 Pro. The PS4 Pro was a very fair and affordable price, but still captured a very small segment of the PS4 userbase. Many PS4 users did not bother to upgrade, and the vanilla PS4 still vastly outsold the Pro rather than later gen adopters flocking to it.
Is the PS5 Pro a fair price? Accounting for inflation, mostly. It's less the system itself and more the lack of the disc drive that harms it. It should have offered a $600 All Digital version and $700 for the disc drive and vertical stand included. But I can easily understand the pricing. Sony wants to make a profit with the PS5 Pro on day one. That's pretty much a requirement. This is not a model that is going to drive sales. It is not the launch of a new generation. The PS5 Pro is not going to cause a massive spike in software sales that subsidize losing money on the system.
People can cry greedy Sony, arrogant Sony all they want. But this is a high end system and Sony doesn't want to lose money on it. If it only appeals to a niche part of their base, that's fine by them. They are not expecting PS5 sales to suddenly double because they launched the Pro. They know from experience that the PS4 Pro was not a large segment of the overall PS4 install base.
If Sony wanted mass adoption and for the majority of PS5 gamers to run out and upgrade to the Pro, they would have priced it to move and been willing to absorb selling the hardware at a loss. But a mid-gen update isn't going to make software sales majorly increase. The physical and digital libraries transfer from console to console.
Sony will not sell many PS5 Pros. They know this. They don't care. They created a niche product for a niche audience inside of their primary base. This notion that in a few months, executives will be wringing their hands and crying that the sky is falling because sales of the Pro are sluggish isn't a reality. There is zero reason for Sony to be concerned until they start losing ground with the base model. PS5 sales overall are still growing. Their Pro model for videophiles who have money to burn is for those who want it, not for the masses.
When the PS6 is revealed years down the line and the price point for it isn't one that the mask market is willing to get behind, that will be a big problem moment for them. This caterwalling of the masses over the high price of a niche product for videophiles isn't even worth the effort. As we've seen already in demonstrations, upcoming games are continuing to look just fine on the base PS5. As you stated, if it's more than you want to spend, don't buy it. No one is being gatekept out of the PlayStation experience by this optional and unnecessary upgrade.
