I'm guessing the hardware part was removed from the blog post not because they decided to kill the next gen hardware, but because the hardware they talked about for later this year was delayed or cancelled. Mid gen refresh consoles Holiday 2024 don't really make sense if next gen is Holiday 2026, just 2 years later.

Or even more simply, the marketing department doesn't want its job to be overstepped and properly control the messaging behind any announcement at a better time so they asked that part of the quote to be removed so they could do their job properly.

It's very unlikely that in 2 weeks they went from confident enough to announce or strongly insinuate a late-year release to a cancellation or delay.

Things can change in days,  we had the hard interview with Angryjoe and Hryb back in the day  with how xbox one needs to be always online and a few days later MS magically changed their always online policy.
