The difference is absolutely negligble. Even side by side its hard to tell the difference in most multiplats without being told they are there and pointing them out.
I have always found this 'if you want to play multiplat games' thing ridiculous. I mean, the games look and play damn near the same on both consoles, a gap that is pegged to decrease, not increase. It is absolutely about exclusives, services, price and features. This particular player has a clear leaning towards Microsoft exclusives and services, the price difference is a constant (though is important to some) and the X1 has a greater out-of-the-box feature set. Everyone has their own general opinion - but in this specific instance it is clear which console is the best option for the user in question.
And to your point about developers, lets use a better analogy from the same developer. The vast majority of gamers gave TLOU the benefit of the doubt because the developer most recently made uncharted, and they were right. Bungie's most immediately recent games were all Halo. Their new game at a minimum tends towards Halo gameplay and art direction, even if the scale and multiplayer type are different...safe bet.

Read my earlier posts, I said the OP would enjoy an XBO more than a PS4. He seems to prefer XBO exclusives to PS4 so he should stay with XBO. I took issue with your statement that the difference in multiplats is negligible, there is a clear difference in 720p and 1080p. If you want to disagree, fine, but that doesn't make the difference go away.
I honestly don't see the comparison to Destiny and Halo. From what I've seen the two games look nothing alike. I'd compare it to Borderlands first but even that doesn't quite describe. I'm not sure if I can compare Destiny to anything right now.

As 2008Procharged points out, the real-world difference is negligible, and broadly irrelevant.
I have not and do not deny the technical reality, but its not a very sensible factor to consider when compared to features and gaming librarys, expecially when both consoles are historically underpowered anyway.
