I'd say that any rumors about an upgraded system slated for release 3 years from now are just plain bullshit. There's a good chance that it will come true, but there certainly isn't any firm plan for something like that at this point.

I think what is most likely to happen is a series S price drop, and the introduction of a series X spec machine without a disk drive. Eventually the series X will drop in price to be the low cost machine, and there will be an upgraded version with higher specs than the current series X.

MS talked in the middle of last generation about an end of generations. They had to move off of that because they needed a clean break from their relatively lackluster Xbox One sales. But, I do think it's very likely that this is the last clear new generation of consoles from Microsoft. From here it will just be price drops of the existing machines and introduction of higher spec models at the top of the price spectrum.

I do think it's likely that the current series X is the last machine that they will release with a disk drive. Maybe there will be one more, but we are definitely near the end of that, for better or worse. 

If MS really goes out of gens then you can expect a HW refresh from them every 2 or 3 years but sure support for like 3 "gens" at a time. But yes I agree these rumors is just based on nothing but general schedule of HW and most likely will come true even if there was no information really leaked.
