The entire point of consoles is standardized hardware. If it requires a single line of code from the developers anywhere in the process, it doesn’t play PS5 games and you don’t have the library you’re advertising.
The second there’s a single instruction you can’t replicate the same/better clock for clock performance in, it is not a handheld PS5. Especially when anything that doesn’t need the power has a PS4 version.
There is a difference between the PS5 Pro and the PS5. The same for Xbox Series X and S. they can make a PS5 handheld, which would just be a “lite version” especially in a year or two. And Sony can let developers have the time to adjust their game for a lower powered version.
