I don't think they care because the devices in the future won't be subsidised anyway, they'll sell at a profit.

Plus if it's not ready then there's not much that can be done, don't want another RROD from rushed development.

Let me ask another dumb question.

If the next boxes are basically a PC in an Xbox shell, doesn't that already reduce any development time?

What would take more development time is if the devices are PC in nature, extensive testing needs to be done with different builds, and scalability of Xbox games. On top of the OS. If the Xbox OS is now gonna be open sourced, that also needs additional work and testing it works on a multitude of devices. 

Xbox hardware has been static up to this point, so this is new territory.
