I don't think anyone is under that impression right now, not with the current ps4/X1 models out there.
Phils statements about the Scorpio are going to contradict a small bit, on one hand he has the sales team telling him that he has to sell the X1 and X1-S consoles for the next 18 months, those systems have to be put forwards as market leaders until Christmas of next year, so he is going to be some what downplaying what the Scorpio will do for standard 1080p gaming on the X1 until it's closer to launch, no one wants to tell their current customers that the current product they're buying is inferior for what they want to do with it which is 1080p gaming.
I think most people would agree that with 6teraflops of power it would be very difficult to make the X1-Scorp run a 720p or 900p game at a stuttering 20fps or so, just... it would take actual skill to manage this.
