Why do we insist that NX has to be another PS or XB, or else it'll fail?

Totally agree with OP, people looking at PS4/XB1 and saying if NX want to have some chances to be success need to be like them, and of course that is totally wrong, there is no room on market for 3 identical consoles, especially when one coming in middle in generation. NX needs to be different than PS4/XB1, it needs to coexist with PS4/XB1 on market not to fight against them with row power (in that case it would easily loose).

Well said

And who said you can't be different AND be as powerful as a 3 years old console?

If the NX is not powerful enough to get the usual big third party games like FIFA, COD, BF, Assassin's Creed and others like that, it will be Wii U 2.0, it's pretty easy to understand this even without being "the same console".
