So it is a very flexible definition to accomodate for a very big processing difference... because at the same time we have the claims of very easy to differentiate the X1X and PS4Pro version of a game from true 4K to checkerboard 4K, and a 50% difference in processing power.

Well, you'll have trouble getting too many people to agree on what is a big difference versus a minor one, opinions vary. With something like depth of field, you can save a lot of processing power by switching it off, and the player will often be none the wiser as if you haven't seen a comparison you may just think it was always not there.

If the gamer will hardly notice than that is the definition of badly used performance budget.

Edit: even more when the difference in performance between the platforms is so big.
