His mistake is in comparing raw specs and guts in the console to what you can get on a PC. Hardware in a console is not the same as hardware in a PC, developers on consoles have pretty much direct access to the entire power of the hardware and they are not designed the same way.

Can you get that exact same setup as a PS4 in a PC? No, it's not possible. Can you get other things to accomplish the same performance? Yes. It just won't do it the way a PS4 (or any console) does.

Outdated thinking. Your idea was true when consoles basically ONLY played games. Consoles are getting more like PC's in that they perform many functions and have a larger OS running in the background. The hardware has to perform so many more tasks nowadays, so that console performance leap from lower specs just ain't gonna happen like it did in the good old days, when consoles JUST played games. Yes there is a performance boost, but it's getting smaller and smaller.
