In Japan, the PlayStation 5 is beginning to outpace its predecessor in sales for the first time; how does its library compare to the PlayStation 4's own at this point in its lifecycle?

This is interesting. It does seem that the PS5 is still lagging in a big way to the previous generation and relying heavily on its predecessor's achievements. A bit like the PS3 struggling to rise above the monster that was the PS2.
I think this generation will replicate the PS3's lifecycle; it took developers some time to crack the complicated Cell architecture. The Last of Us and Grand Theft Auto V debuted in its last year, I dare say Naughty Dog's rumoured immersive sim will both set a precedent for Sony's first-party narrative titles and arrive at the PS5's conclusion. A hardware refresh without a flagship title to showcase was not the savviest choice.
