Exactly, this was to ensure that it doesn't OverHeat.

This much space to ensure it doesn't overheat is a gross overreaction.
Why not use more efficient parts or enclosures?
The metal dividers and and enclosures in the ps4 and wiiU act as heat dissipation. It's like a heatsink that transfers and spreads the heat out instead of concentrating it. Most pcs utilize a similar structure for cooling.
Saying 'it was to ensure it doesn't Overheat' is only really half the story. It was to ensure it doesn't overheat while at the same time allowing them to use off the shelf parts, no customization, and a cheap slimline as early as possible.
I would imagine ms has 2 slimline versions down the line, if not more.
Like...why aren't their tablets or laptops oversized? How is it every other product they make is heat efficient, minimal, and creative? They said the design cost billions in R&D. But where is it?

This really angers you this much? WOW!
who Cares, however when you spend a billion on Over heating, You can expect this OVER REACTION!!!
Maybe they are thinking people will not let the Console breath and put them into small areas, this will help with people that don't understand the console needs to breath. Is this really that big of a stretch, NO but people will make it this massive issue it is not.

You're approaching the issue as if these were grade-schoolers deigning the system. These are some of the highest paid, most experienced engineers in the industry.
The problem with your argument is that RROD only occurred on the initial xbox360s
This is the 360 slim. Look how everything has its own little bay and storage area, and has molding to funnel the air the way it wants. Even has a smaller fan.
How does your point stand if MS could engineer this and have no overheating problems, yet create a console that has double the open space of the og x360?
