Capcom are kind of dicks, they easily could just allow MS to make the games BC but just like Resident Evil they say, no bc just buy it again fools...

Or MS could just make every game BC on the Xbox One X which is powerful enough to emulate everything

No they can't because they need permission from the publishers  to do it;

Like on Sonys PS1, PS2 BC on PS3? Or Nintendos Wii on Wii U?

Those were hardware-based emulation, which the XBO does not have.

PS1 emulation, PS2 was half emulation in Europe

The original launch models here had hardware emulation, I can't speak for Europe as I don't live there.

They removed the Emotion Engine CPU and let the Cell emulate it in PAL countries, and later NTSC revisions

The Xbox One is doing partial hardware-based emulation. - All of the texture and audio formats are supported natively in hardware.
Which means... Microsoft was intending to do backwards compatibility before the Xbox One's launch.

There is also repackaging, interpreting and virtualization at play.

I'm gonna pass on this one. I don't think this series aged very well. I actually prefer the reboot to the first four.
