The Pro and Scorpio are both upgrade hardware designed for enthusiasts and people already in the ecosystem, not so much to entice new customers. So it’s not surprising a bunch of people who prefer PlayStation and uh.. work for a PlayStation website would prefer a Pro.
I gotta say though, even if I preferred PlayStation, the Pro is such a weak upgrade, why bother?

If the X1X is worth it to someone whose previously expressed apathy to image quality/graphics (such as yourself), someone that already cared about those things is likley to value a Pro to a comparable degree. Especially since they're paying quite a bit less. I know I've been quite happy with the Pro. Not amazed, but it's been worth the entry price.
The dynamic obviously further shifts if you're dealing with someone that doesn't own a PS4 at all.

Apathy to image quality/graphics is not accurate at all. Apathy to the blown out of proportions difference between Xbone and PS4 that we saw a million threads about at launch and for awhile after, sure. And the PS4 to Pro represents that same small leap in quality. Fortunately the Scorpio is a massive upgrade to the Xbone, and also has lots of features built in that spruce games up even better. Some of the BC games for example look amazing, as already mentioned in the thread. Plus super sampling support built right in, yowza. That one is less of a draw for me personally because I am waiting to replace the 4k TV my son broke before buying a Scorpio.
The dynamic obviously further shifts if you’re dealing with someone that already owns a PS4 and Xbone and prefers the userface, network, and controller of Xbone.
