So, he's saying he'd rather have it be upgradeable? versus releasing a whole new system?
Way I see it, they could just provide supplemental processing power through a USB 3.0 connected device. Beats needing to buy a whole entire system.
Frankly, I think MS is holding off on details and I think Sony just the same has held off on details. I think what this boils down to are each of them are waiting to see what Nintendo pulls out of their hat at the NX reveal later this month. If Nintendo goes the beefcake console route, Sony and MS are upgrading. If Nintendo goes the modest console with their signature first party content, then this just helps the system play 4K Blu-rays and upscale 1080p to 4K or maybe even handle games at a higher native resolution for higher output settings but nothing revolutionary as to make the games scale similarly.
Still, me personally, I'd rather Sony/Microsoft stick with 1080p/60fps standard and use that extra power to get better performance at that output standard, versus wasting that potential on 4K.
