I wonder if Microsoft intends to release their new "Xbox PC's" (besides handhelds like ROG Xbox Ally) much sooner than we think, but will go with ridiculous prices ($2000+) for very top model.

How would the highend PC community react to a $2000 Xbox-PC if it somehow beats more expensive setups in performance? Obviously it won't sell anywhere near console levels, but it might do well for its new class.

Maybe they could offer the best price-to-performance for a prebuilt PC, but they're never going to beat the price of building your own. And the vast majority of people who are enthusiast enough to spend $2k on a system will be building their own.
