Source on dev machines being more powerful?

I wasn't aware that was common practice. I assume this is for ease of playtesting a game before any optimisation phases have happened? I wonder whether it has a setting to convert down to actual PS5 power levels.

Of course. Sigh...

Typically they aren't more powerful, but they have more RAM to assist with debugging
