i dont understand these sony gamers, how hard is it to get a one time activation.

It's not a one time activation. If your console acts funny and you need to reset it to factory settings you'll have  to download the patch again.

And that's where one of the issues lie. No one knows how hard it will be to get the patch down the road.

This is a problem mainly for launch window X1s, as I'm sure later consoles will have the patch preinstalled.

This will only affect the first batch of consoles. The vast majority will have the patch intergrated into the system.

 

Also you can download Xbox 360 system updates on Xbox.com
It's likely that you can just download the day one patch there as well. Then just keep it on a PC, flash drive or somewhere else.
