Consoles do cover different needs, I'm a console gamer. I just feel like a push for consoles to have really big leaps each generation (more than normal) will pass the cost onto the consumer. If 2 sets of specs become more common (like the Series X/S) then go for it. 

Oh, okay, but that's what they are doing, I think?

I mean, there is always a leap between each gen no matter what. I don't think it is abnormal, if you look at the PC side, I mean high end GPU are 40+ TFP; so while not being that drastic, you want the console to at least be "up to date" when it comes out. And let's not mix Nintendo into this, because (at least right now); those big AAA on PC are not making it there, but just on Xbox/Play Station. So you need your console to be able to at least run those AAA games coming out on both platform, and frankly you do not want them to run really bad on console all together, console players should also be a first class citizen for those games, and the only way is to have powerful enough consoles

More than likely, doing so makes their library defacto optimized or easily optimized on low-end PC config which provides maximum audience reach. Rog Ally, Lenovo Legion Go, and even the older Steam deck can play the almost entire Xbox library as a result of using this 2 specs approach.
