While I do understand the sentiment that consoles are more convenient than PCs, there's nothing stopping you from using a PC as if it's a console. I game on PC 99% of the time, I almost never play with KB+M, and my PC is connected to my 55'' LG C2 in my living room right alongside my ps5. This obviously doesn't stop you from having to deal with dumb pc troubleshooting if you want to do one of the miriad of goofy ass things PCs can do with some technical know how on your part. But if you're just going to be buying modernish games on steam I don't think you're experience is going to be all that different from gaming on a console. It's just a different box running a different OS that isn't tightly controlled (from a storefront perspective) by Sony.
Plus you get the benefit of playing games from basically every generation of gaming on one box.
