PS5 vs PS5 Pro for GTA 6: Is the Pro Worth It?

For most people I'd get the Slim, because GTA 6 is reported to run at 30 fps on both for now and the Pro is sold out at $899.99. The Pro only makes sense if you find one at list price and you play on a big 4K TV, and I wouldn't pay $1,399.99 for a used one. What I'd buy for GTA 6.
