Why can t you download ps3 games on ps5?

No they Will not. They do not have the same software Architecture. if somehow you hacked the software to recognize the games, the hardware withing the PS3 is probably not good enough to support the games either. It looks like PS5 will be backwards comparable and play many PS4 games.

Can you download ps3 games anymore?
Unlike the PS4 and PS5, buying games on the PS3 has a number of inconvenient restrictions: You must buy games via the console itself, not a Web browser. You must preload the funds you need into your account. You can download a game only from its store listing, not via a Web browser or app.
