You make it sound like any of that is difficult or extremely time consuming, which it isn't. The payout far exceeds the price for entry.
I do PC game, so let me give you a counterpoint:
I have GeForce Experience which manages my drivers, but after a windows update awhile back suddenly the updates fail at like 80%, no idea why.
Now I'm just barely smart enough that I could probably fix it if I sat down for an hour or two and did some googling.
But why would I do that? I can just hit the power button on my Xbox and not have to troubleshoot an obscure problem.
You are paying hundreds of dollars to avoid minor driver issues that most people don't even face. That's your choice, but I can't say that I see the sense in it.
I spent 2 grand on the PC that gives me minor driver issues that only I experience. The hundreds of dollars I spent on the Xbox that works just like everyone else's Xbox seems like a bargain to me.
