Sarah Bond revealed that Xbox is working on a next-generation Xbox console to deliver "the largest technical leap" in the upcoming hardware generation.
Rumors of Xbox not wanting to continue their hardware are now confirmed to be false.
I feel like we hear this every single time though. “Largest tech leap in a hardware generation” very much means “we’ll bump the graphics a little, we’re still targeting 30fps though”
30/60fps is always a developer choice. Not related to hardware capability.
That being said, every generation console makers will make the most powerful hardware they can for the price point they are gonna charge. It’s not exactly like Microsoft have any secret sauce here. It’s the same amd/nvidia hardware choices for the price point they think they can sell at that anyone can make a machine with.

Yes, a choice to code and optimize the game properly or not is always the creator’s choice.
