Well... Actually, the false narrative would be to claim that they share 95% of the same library. The reality is that Xbox ones entire library of games available to play is about 67% the size of what you can play on Ps4. This is easily verified on the PSN store and the Microsoft store itself for each console. Look.

939 games total on Xbox, 40 of those Free to play

1414 games total on PS4.

Its possible that 95% of what's on Xbox is available on PlayStation, but it's impossible that 95% of what's on PlayStation is on Xbox. 

 

Inb4 "it's all Japanese games" (hint: it's not)

Holy smokes! I didn't know it was like that! That's a huge gap of games.

That's because the Internet is a stream of misinformation. Nobody's even bothered to fact check when it's become easier than ever, and often times the opinions you find yourself immersed in from various forums are largely disconnected from the real world/reality.

 

An easy example of that would be with call of duty. You'll be hard pressed to find someone that admits they like the franchise, and yet guess which franchise is one of the best selling of all time.... Another one would be the notion that both HD twins share most of the same library. That's disingenuous and not true.

 

 

One thing the Internet has gotten right though? Dear lord, the Witcher 3 is gotg ._.
