It's an alternative controller that Microsoft decided to build there system around, something, as other posters have already stated, helps define the Xbox One and separate it from its competitors. 
For the most part, it seems the only people complaining about it are the anti-Microsoft crowd, devoted PS4 fans with a bashing agenda, and gamers that can't seem to wrap their head around the fact that it's not a peripheral and use its inclusion as a way to bitch about price.
While the PS4 is inarguably more powerful on the stat sheet and has seen that difference parlayed into countless threads about better resolutions and frame rates, the Xbox One, as is, can do things the PS4 simply can't.
I'm more than willing to sacrifice a mere 180 lines of pixels and a few dozen frames per second, both technical specs that are negligible when the differences of measurement are so small, for a console that gives me advantages and user experiences the others don't have.
The PS4 is the more powerful, less expensive machine; the Xbox One is the more interesting and forward thinking alternative.
Price or innovation?
Innovation always wins in the long run.. would you be reading this on your tablet or smartphone if it didn't?

What I see is that the people who are complaining are X360 owners that didn't like Kinect and don't want it to be packaged with the X1 making it more expensive than it would have to be. Us PS fanboys couldn't care less. In fact we are really happy that MS decided to force it on their fans and making them upset ;)

So what groundbreaking things can the X1 do that PS4 can't? You do know that there is this thing called PS4 camera that is very well capable of voice, gesture and face recognition as well as motion gaming. If people would care, Sony would push these features but they don't because nobody does.

Wii had price AND innovation and see where that ended. Innovation alone can't hold up a product. Also you can't really call Kinect innovation anymore. It's more like an evolution of a thing that was once regarded Innovation.

if that were actually true.. than why did you bother responding to this thread?
...not to mention the fact that immediately after stating that, you said the following,
"In fact we are really happy that MS decided to force it on their fans and making them upset"

gotcha!!
