The problem is it's a shrinking pie too. 

85 million XBox 360

58 million XBox One

Maybe 40 million XBox Series S/X?

That's not moving in the right direction. 

Xbox Series will sell more than that, it's already getting close to 30m. Unless they launch the next Xbox early it still has a good shot of crawling to 50m. Just an average of 5m the next four years almost gets there.

I thought 40 mil was a bit low too, but I assumed that perhaps it was just to make a clear distinction that XBS sales will be less than XB1.

50 mil probably would've been a more reasonable ballpark guess, but then you could totally see some people saying, 'that's basically the same as the One so there's no drop in hardware.'

Unless there's a considerable change or shift this gen, XBS will sell less than XB1. The point is the hardware trend is consistently downward.
