I take it as a "I don't know/understand what I'm talking about".

Thanks for clearing that out. =)

How is it not blindingly obvious that a console is going to provide for a better, and more efficient platform to optimize on?

 

Everything about them is built from the ground up to play video games. But don't take my word for it, below is a link to a presentation by Dr. Richard Marks, who runs Sonys Magic Lab, where he mentions that a console (The PS4 specifically) is 60% more powerful than the equivalent PC. Due to things like a super low latency OS,  and an API that allows for very deep optimization.

Edit: Skip to 8:30 for the part in question.

I am not putting in question that specs for specs consoles are more capable than PCs.
