TBH Xbox fans are the most tolerant of their with regards to Xbox.
Even Nintendo fans are becoming more demanding.

The only time I've seen a majority of Xbox Fans against Xbox is the DRM/Fiasco, and even that was ~49% in favor of.
Screwing over early adopters? I don't mind I knew the risks.
RROD? It's ok I can get a 3rd xbox.
XBL cost? Its better than PSN by 60 dollars a year
XBL paywall? I can watch netflix on my computer
powerbrick(360)? Keeps heat out of the consoles. (Which is why it never overheated ofc -_-)
powerbrick(X1)? Keeps heat out of console. (PS4 has the common sense to monitor its op temp)
(Weaker for 100 more)? Xb1 has more value, Kinect, I can't see the difference
(Mandatory Kinect)? Kinect is great, I don't need options, Value, Dev support will increase (as FW and KSR have proven)
(proprietary hdd(360)? external hdd/in ms we trust
(no legal hdd replace (x1)? external hdd
(Titanfall on PC)? Microsoft Exclusive
(No Wifi model)? Don't need online gaming (:o...)
(No HDD model)? I can buy my own hdd (No you can't you still have to buy a proprietary one)
(PS+ gives away games)? Games with gold (360 only for a limited time -_-)
(XB1 name is confusing/stupid)? Its the One device you will need in your living room (except all the other devices it needs to do this like a cable box)
(XB1 price?) Value, Kinect, Value, Worth more( Sure it is)
I could go on.

In comparison, the OG Xbox was much more innovative then its later incarnations.

I can make a similar list.....short answer is that fans will side with their corporate gods no matter what.
