Isn't it the same exact GPU gap (percentage wise) as OG ps4 and OG XB1? MS spent years claiming this difference is hardly noticeable now all of the sudden it will be "obvious"? If any thing wont it be even less obvious because of diminishing returns in terms of graphical improvement? now the difference is that you have to wait a whole year to get that same difference OG PS4 had over XB1 day one. Will having the relative graphical advantage as OG PS4 to XB1 really make up for the year difference? idk, just something I keep thinking when I see people saying PSpro was a bad move.

As for the price of Scorpio, why would they wait an additional year if they still have to increase the price of the console? It feels like the reason to wait another year is to be able to have a more capable 4k console at the same price point. I think it is possible (and necessary) for Scorpio to launch at $400 next year but I cant see how this situation can be a win for XB1. XB1 is the one that needed to get its mid cycle refresh out sooner in order to gain some momentum. PS4 has the momentum right now and will get a year head start on the "4k" console scene on top of that. Graphics matter and effect sales but so do price and timing.
