I don't think the logic is sound here.
The 4 trailers with missing platforms is probably just Xbox being non commital for anything that is more than 18 months away as a way to manage risk.
If they release a system in 2026, and they very much could, I don't see a way where they could drop support for series X and S for a long time afterward.
My guess is if they drop next gen early they will adopt a strategy to support current gen through the next one. ex:
EDIT: crappy screenshot because table cell merge and split does not work apparently:
Doing so they will entirely drop the "reboot" happening at every gen cycle and I think this is actualy required in order to maintain gamepass userbase throughout gens cycles.
