If it’s so early in the cycle that they can’t capture output from a PS5 (or even PS5 Dev Kit) then they shouldn’t call it a gameplay trailer. It should be something like “first peek” or maybe “gameplay teaser”.
I’m just saying it’s easy to capture footage from a PC development version
We aren’t talking about daily development reports where the ease of recording is a key factor. For an official trailer, one might expect a little more effort.
I guess we could bring it down to dwindling PS5 exclusivity offers and in general the state of marketing hype.
They could just wait until they can show something that is actually playable on their console and show that, relying on showing cinematic trailers and (something I have rarely seen) featurettes until then.
I don’t disagree with that. The tiny disclaimer should tell you enough about whether this is an actual representation of the PS5 experience.

Edit: seems this game still doesn’t have a release date. That would explain why Sony doesn’t have access to PS5 footage yet
