That doesn't make any sense to me unless it was an afterthought or a change of stance. If someone at XB said, hey, let's call the launch version Scorpio Edition to boost sales, why didn't they, or anyone else who agreed, think to themselves, why don't we just call it Xbox One Scorpio and make everyone happy and sell even more over its lifetime, instead of just at launch? It's not like XB1 isn't known for making fairly quick changes to things they specifically said they weren't going to change.

The main problem here was they wanted it to be seen as an iterative console which still belongs to the X1 family, otherwise everybody would have complained why they abandon their console after only 4 (3) years. Even if that's what they are basically doing.

Hence the name Xbox One Scorpio. I fail to see how that is anything generational like Xbox Scorpio, Xbox Two, or Xbox 4k, etc.
