It I documented that the Pi4 PSU is fine, but will limit everything to the 0.6A so don't connect anything that needs more.
It is documented (maybe just mentioned) that that is the 5V lines, it includes the fan connector for example.
If you are trying to run something that needs more than that, be it an SSD os an up to 2.5A NVME common sense would say 0.6A is not enough.
It is mentions that thing may boot but if the CPU needs that 'current' things may suddenly stop.
At boot often lots of devices drawer full power, hence stuff don't work.
Hence it is recommended to use Thier purpose buil PSU for the Pi5, just like I would need to buy an expensive charger to charge my Phone at full speed, and why I had to buy my son a 750W PSU for his computer and not a standard 300 to 450 PSU I already had.
