Well they did market this podcast as an update on the future of Xbox. We also heard that Phil Spencer, during his internal conference with Microsoft Gaming employees, said they would continue making Xbox hardware. So it would make sense for Xbox to lessen the negative impact of this partial multiplatform news by announcing early details about their next gen hardware plans, be they the rumored official Xbox produced docking handheld and next gen home console, and/or the rumored 3rd party OEM Xbox consoles.
Confirming next gen hardware will have dual layer Xbox OS + Windows OS would go a long way towards assuaging my concerns about Xbox's future, if next gen Xbox is basically just a PC that can also run 5 generations of Xbox games, Xbox's biggest issue for me, lack of ports, will no longer be an issue since basically any game will be playable on the Windows OS via options like Steam, Epic Games Store, and GOG, even if the developers choose not to make an optimized bespoke port for the Xbox OS layer.
