People want a console but also:

A wider game library (Missing on Playstation and Xbox)
No subscription (missing Playstation and Xbox)
a working 10 foot UI (missing in windows)
controller os navigation (missing in windows)
no bimonthly fullscreen nags to use edge, office365, onedrive, etc. (missing in windows)
Working ACPI sleep states. (Missing on most cheap mini PCs)
Backwards compatibility for older titles and not needing to rebuy games when upgrading (Missing on PlayStation)

Microsoft could probably build an XBox that fixes the first problem but would probably fill it with nag screens.

People with technical skills can probably run Bazzite on a minipc but might hit issues with sleep depending on luck while purchasing.

People without technical skills just want a package that works

Well said, I think the library is the biggest point but also a harder sell for someone used to losing a large percentage of their games every generation. They see it as "having to buy their games again" in the short term.
