Shannon Loftis had stated at one point that it'd be up to the devs to make Scorpio exclusives or not and I think that's where a lot of the confusion came from despite Aaron Greenberg and Phil clarifying later on.

It would be stupid to drop original Xbox One after the Scorpio launch. Devs still will be held back by original PS4 for at least 3-4 years before PS5 arrives. |
Scorpio could launch while being fully backward compatible, having cross plat games during the launch period and slowly shifting focus to Scorpio only over the course of a few years. With this being a mid gen upgrade though, their next mainline console wont have a typical increase in power or it will drag the generation on for longer as it becomes the lowest common denominator and Sony drops the Ps5 two years later. We will see though. To me it seems like they've positioned themselves so that they can make a relatively easy jump to PC only if Scorpio fails.
