Are we sure this isn't just DF playing a patched version of Control?
The Series X version was plagued with (possible I/O?) stutters at release, stutters that would drag the frame times even further south in the midst of normal performance related drops as you traversed through levels or new enemies were spawning in.
The stutters were pretty much solved and patched out just a few weeks after release. It's been an infinitely smoother experience to play ever since.
I honestly wouldn't be surprised if this is what Richard is looking at. Not that I wouldn't mind a system level update bringing about performance gains, I just think the former is far more likely in this case.
That said, patch or system level update, this does highlight how quickly performance comparisons and debates on forums like this become yesterday's news. Outside the release window no one generally gives a toss or re-tests outside of isolated cases.
