They did of course play it safe with the hardware

Comparing flops, wattage and size, one didn't play it as safe as the other.

You are trying to be diplomatic when most of the OP is easily refutable.

 

If we are comparing only the base consoles themselves then sure, Sony were riskier with their hardware specs/design. When compared to previous consoles though, the PS4 was still a safe bet. Nothing wrong with that, in-fact i'd say it was a necessary move to create a more stable developer environment within the industry (likely why both MS and Sony independently opted for x86), but it was safe none the less.
