I've selected "performance" in the PS5 settings, but I've experienced several AAA games ignoring it and having their own graphics setting that defaults to "fancy graphics" mode.

3/4 of players want performance, but publishers don't care.

Because actually optimizing games is hard, but hiring many graphic artists to make it look pretty not so much.
