Except they never announced it for Xbox One. People and the Internet made up this, they just said it would come later on Xbox console and always talked about Xbox Series, never mentioned Xbox One generation.
If both games come to Xbox One, it is good for the Xbox One owners anyway but I highly doubt it. Like someone already said, the game will be out on PC day one + Series X and S. 

Someone spilled the beans

https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/flight-simulator-xbox-release-shared-progress-7043#section-1

Only the Xbox Series X and S versions were confirmed, despite a (now deleted) post on the official support website earlier in the year stating it was "coming to Xbox One at a later date", and that lead software engineer Martial Bossard originally explaining to Windows Central how development on the Xbox One version would benefit PC development.

"We are trying to have the best visuals on every single platform, and it's another layer of optimisation," he explained.

"By the way, the Xbox will help us to optimise the product, so it will also be a benefit for PC. There is nothing PC will lose from the Xbox. It's basically the opposite. We're doing the work to have a better experience on the Xbox family, then we will improve the PC version at the same time."

That second quote is already confirmed to be false

No one spilled the beans.

Like I said. Made up by people and the Internet. If your ONLY quote of what "you" call an official announcement is something that someone randomly posted on a "support" forum and deleted cause it was actually inaccurate (half of the people working at support have no idea what they are talking to, but even without that), I believe you actually just proving what I said. 

- Microsoft NEVER officially said it would release on Xbox One. Simple as that. And saying that they "stealthily" 'cancelled' something they never announced in the first place is also made up obviously.

The rest of your post is not even related anyway and does not even mention Xbox One specifically (which is the topic here...). Again, Internet... And how to ballon up everything :)
