MS better hope they don't, as that would take the wind out of their sails before they even launch.  And it's not impossible.  We have had a rumor about a Pro Slim.  Some were thinking it was about a PS4 Super Slim, but I doubt it.  It would also be Sony's cost cutting coming to fruition.  Lowered cost thanks to no 4K Bluray drive.  Instead of a completely new GPU, they just doubled up on the one they have been ordering for the OG PS4 already.

Now, if the Scorpio is $399, I think Sony may go aggressive.  However, if it is $449+, I doubt they will feel the need to, and just cut it by $50.

Why would they go aggresive? They are way ahead in sales and in this gen they havent seen to be very aggresive. 

They just released a PS4 that's gold AND has a 1TB HDD for just $249.  And they say it's limited, but they made sure to put out enough that Amazon hasn't sold out, yet, even though it's been in the Top 5 for hours, now.  I'd say that's pretty aggressive.  Like I said, we'll see.

Can't wait to get an xbox scorpio. True 4k gaming/ 4k textures and not some fake 4k shenanigans a certain console is trying to pull of.

Well, then prepare to be disappointed, because the Scorpio will be employing some of those shenanigans, too.  If you want true 4K gaming, you're going to have to get a PC.  Or wait for the PS5.  Though, that may even use 4K checkerboarding on some games if the devs want to push the HW even more.
