What XBox exclusives would causes you to stick with Microsoft if they only have always on and block used games?

Have you ever tried to play on PS3 or 360 during server maintenance? Has your internet connection ever gone out? Do you ever move your console to your garage or grandmas house? There are tons of real-world scenarios where an internet connection isn't avaiable.

Nope. Never ran into service maintenance.

All my family live on the otherside of the continent so it's not an often occurance that I stay with them, I've got a fiber link going directly into my games room and use a premium gaming ISP which uses multiple backhaul providers so there is never any downtime.
If I do travel, it's not to play games that I can do at home, but to drink, catch-up with friends and family, have a barbie, go to the beach, see some strippers, that sort of thing, I won't be worried about playing games that's for sure. ;)

Sure you might miss an offline option, but don't presume everyone would be bothered by it.

Never said EVERYONE would be affected by it, but many will. Entire countries will be affected by this.

You're a PC gamer, so it makes sense you haven't run into Xbox Live or PSN downtime. It happens more often than you think. On Call of Duty launch day, good luck!
