I like this post and find it generally helpful however feel the last line about why Xbox One hasn't been emulated yet is in my opinion both opinion and speculation, which is fine --

I think the community could come up with some robust counter arguments about why this hasnt occured yet, maybe there not being interest due to catalog overlap between Xbox and Windows PC since the OS is basically a custom Windows with a custom Direct X, as is the case for Xbox Y2K, and Xbox 360 and has been put into a virtual machine AFAIK via Xemu and Xenia. Following that legacy, Xbox fans have always seemed slower than other fans to emulate their consoles -- for whatever reason.

I'm not talking about emulating the consoles; I am talking about hacking them to run unsigned code.
