And I was referring to the possibility that you might come into ownership of a XBone at some point in your life.
Yes, but I am pointing out that I have a greater chance of waking up one day and discovering I have sprouted wings than I do coming into ownership of an Xbone. At a certain point, there's no functional difference between a 0% chance and a 0.0000000000000000~1% chance.
I've actually operated on the assumption for years that if I somehow won or was given an Xbox One for free, I'd immediately sell it or give it to someone else instead of using it myself. This assumption hasn't actually changed at any point.
Nearly every game released this generation that I care about at all is available on the PS4. Halo 5 and the Master Chief Collection are the only games that would even potentially interest me in theory, but they absolutely ruined Halo 5 and the Master Chief Collection has been massively broken since release (something they're only starting to fix four years later), so I have zero interest in playing them.
When it comes to other exclusives, the main ones everybody always used to bring up were Scalebound (which was cancelled, but which I never gave a shit about in the first place), Crackdown 3 (which is endlessly delayed, and which I never gave a shit about in the first place), Quantum Break (which never interested me), Sunset Overdrive (which always seemed like overhyped pretentious garbage, like a shit version of Jet Set Radio), Titanfall 2 (which never interested me), Forza (I haven't been interested in sim-racing games since Gran Turismo 3), and Gears of War 4 (I've never liked the franchise, I see no reason to play the game most people agree is the worst one in it).
Oh, and the joke without a punchline that is Sea of Thieves.
I am very, very confident that I will never own an Xbox One. Just like I was very confident that I would never own a PS3 last generation, and I still don't own a PS3. I'm pretty good at predicting my own personal future preference trends (and have been for more than 25 years).
Granted, Microsoft COULD release a console next gen that solves a lot of my issues with the Xbone and successfully courts third-party support reminiscent of the 360, and thus win me back again. But literally none of the evidence out there now suggests that they WILL. Or that they even want to.
And I didn't think I'd ever pick up a 360, yet here we are.

I made the mistake of visiting the comic book-related sub-forum here at Game FAQs and reading a long topic about the new She-Ra. I am ... not going to watch it. I sense I am not the target audience, and the discussion (read: argument) suggests that it is going to be another Voltron: Legendary Defender in terms of how toxic the fandom is. ... Gives me a good excuse to go back and rewatch the '03 He-Man reboot, though. That one holds up, IMO.
Reading up about and looking at a photo of the new show's creator can pretty much tell you all you need to know about the show and its agen--errr, direction >_>
I mean, it's not terrible but it's also nothing special. If not for MotU's sister brand, I probably wouldn't have bothered watching more than a few minutes. From the second I saw chubby Glimmer, I realized it was going to go heavy on the diversity angle. On the plus side, some of the VA work/characterizations are enjoyable, like Mermista's. (And Entrapta's Doc Ock way of moving with her hair is a nice touch.) ---
