As if we needed more dev confirmation that the PS4 is over 40% more powerful than Xbone

The key here is:

The most powerful console
The cheaper of the two consoles
The best 1st party studios
Easier to program by far than the Ps3
More indie devs than XboxOne
Bigger launch window line up
Cheaper online
Less items behind a paywall

Isn't that a potential good combination? It's not like the Ps4 has only one or two little things going for it right now, it seems to have a lot.

Most of your point are debatable, "30% 40% or 50% more powerfull" means nothing if you can't clearly see that power difference in multiplatform games, and frankly I doubt you will see it. As for the best lineup it all comes down to personal preference. For me there is nothing in PS4 launch lineup that looks remotely attractive. The price can change, especially if they bring out a kinect-less sku (and I believe this will happen at some point).

Anyway why did people bought the PS3 in 2006? It had worse lineup, multiplats looked like cr@p and the price was absurd.

Brand loyalty, same will happen with the Xbone. Also note that X360 had many First party exclusive at the beginning but when the market was big enough they neglected the core gamers in favor of kinect games and now you can see at the end that they had no commitment (like sony still publishing first party game last tlou, beyond 2 souls and GT6 at the end of the consoles cycle), just like how they stopped supporting the original Xbox.
