it seems too many assumptions are being made here and does it not seem very strange that,

1- MS is giving TFLOP targets 16/18 months before release?

2- Sony is keeping hush hush on details when they supposedly were going to release the Neo this year?

I suspect Sony will be revising which GPU they go for with AMD and which price point they want to reach. If the neo was really going to be out as soon as we previously assumed there would be an announcement made.

MS tipped their hand really early and that gives a huge amount of time for the current hardware leader to chill and mount a battle plan.

Honestly I hope so, the more powerful the console becomes, the better :)

Not necessarily. Hardware revisions are normally announced a month or 2 in advance

Microsoft Announcing Scorpio so early when they didn't even do that for the Xbox One is more confusing. Potentially to avoid consumer backlash from letting people lap up the Xbox One S whilst planning something even bigger the following yera, but maybe also because they know sony is releasing Neo this fall and wants to get the word out there.
