Well the PS4 is like half the size and it doesn't have an external AC adaptor. Yet it has no overheating problems either...?

Maybe PS4 had better engineers. 

Well Microsofts core business is Software, not hardware, that is where they earn their billions.

Also I think they didn't want to point to the past, They wanted to make sure, with out a doubt RROD never happened again. This system has enough room to cool down, even when people put them in tight areas. I wouldn't close it up in a box but I think that was some of the feeling. Do not let that f'ing thing over heat was passed down, the engineer made sure.
