As Ilari said, there are ciphersuites with PSK and FS. 

I don’t see what the rationale can be to allow non-PFS for PSK authentication, but prohibit it for certificate authentication.  That would imply that we can make a blanket statement that the data passed in PSK-authenticated sessions is inherently low-value or non-private.  I don’t think we can make that statement.
