6 TFLOPS is to 4.2 TFLOPS what 1.84 TFLOPS is to 1.3 TFLOPS, so I don't understand why PS4 Pro is launching this year while poor Microsoft will have to wait until the next.

6 TFLOPS is not all that special if people will have had a whole year to get their eyes used to 4.2 TFLOPS. The Scorpion already is beginning to sound underwhelming, relatively speaking.

Scorpion's only chance to stand out at least a little bit is to up the specs to 8 TFLOPS and include the brand new Zen CPU from AMD.

It could easily be higher than 6 tf, that is just the baseline number obviously, lots of time until the hw is finalized.  Wouldn't shock me if it ends up closer to 8 than 6 tf.  Scorpio  is more of a new gen console than what the ps4-pro is, with the larger time and power gap from xb1.  MS is aiming for a legit 4k console whereas the 4pro is  just a starter 4k system.

Question becomes, will the ps4pro's head start be like the PS2 headstart (power doesn't matter as much), or dreamcast (too soon)...
