Except this happened last month:

"The Xbox Series X|S is the only console to see growth year-over-year with sales up in the double-digit percentage range."

Let's see how much things have changed for this month.

But many other factors go into this. Not sure what caused it to increase YoY last month, perhaps PS5 being suddenly available in large quantities in January 2023 contributed to weak Xbox sales then. And February 2023 had Hogwarts Legacy releasing, which means a Feb YoY decline was highly probable regardless of what MS did.

And this happened on December, which means we have actually seen growth YoY for the last two months, so I really have no idea how you got to the conclusion that "Xbox would have declined regardless" this month.
