This Licence guy is trying to take the small, small, *small* number of instances of PS4s having issues, and blow it up to mean that half of them are breaking and everyone is trying to downplay and cover it up.
Ok, let's get an equal number of reported instances and then blow that up to mean an unacceptable number XBones are breaking:
http://www.reddit.com/r/xboxone/comments/1r6wb3/xbox_one_issues_so_far/
4-5 reported cases of disc drives not working, 1 case of hanging loading screens, 1 case of a ban after putting in the EOU update.
PS4 had about 8 initial reports of issues, and everyone blew it out of proportion. So let's use this Licence guy's logic for this situation. There are 7 reports of XBone issues, so that means they're all breaking! And it's only 7 so far. To deny these *sneer* damning statistics is you just covering up that Microsoft has put out a bad product

When almost 30% of the reviews on your product is 1-star DOA reviews from verified customers, then the problem can hardly be described as "small, small, *small*". And there are almost a thousand of them, not the 8 you are talking about.

The initial number of reports, in that 24 hour window from launch, was about 8 and the media went and ran with it. Reporting "omg, PS4s are breaking left and right". Causing Sony to release the official statement that less than 0.4% were screwing up. But no, the media storm is making you go "look, look! These Amazon reviews just prove that all the consoles are breaking!" all the while ignoring the other 80% that give it 5 star reviews.
It's been 8 hours since the XBone launched (and that thread was started 10 hours ago). There's already been 7 reports in that window of time (and that's just on Reddit alone). Now let's wait until the media catches wind of this, and I and many others will have readily accessible "data" once that small sample size gets blown out of proportion. And more importantly, let's wait til the XBone has more than 88 reviews, since apparently that's the end all, be all metric
