That's exactly my point i wanted to make, and it's perfectly ok. They just need to say that. Why are they not saying just that ?

Whatever the xbox one can do, the pc can match or do better. So the only reason the game is an xbox one exclusive is because microsoft wants it to be, for the reasons you mentioned. And insomniac agreed to it (propably to retain the ip rights).
To sum it up, this is why the game is exclusive to xbox one. Not what they say in the article that generated this topic.

I'd rather believe in seasoned developers than non-developers people on VGC.
