Yeah but not everyone is going to be in Larian’s position, and those with that kind of clout also stand to lose out a lot of revenue they clearly wanted in the first place.
So they’ll most likely decide to completely remove features from the Xbox releases rather than try to get them to work on S, which will lead to worse gaming options on the Xbox. Which Sony will absolutely love.

The strength of consoles as a development target is that there is only a single hardware configuration you need to support.
Microsoft squandering that advantage in order to hit a lower price point was a gift to Sony that will keep on giving.
They could have cheaped on the soc, reduced some minor detail rendering.
Screwing with ram size is moronic.
RAM feels like it’s the one thing they really shouldn’t have skimped out on, because that’s the one that’s going to affect longevity the most.
While also being one of the least expensive components, if the trend for consoles follows the price patterns for pc parts.
