It's more about the hardware/firmware/software uniformity and reliability for some people. My friend is in this camp, he doesn't want to need to manage a PC, he just wants a box he can reliably turn on and use.

And to expand a little on your point, uniformity means devs can target specific optimizations/performance. I.e. this will run like this on a Steam medium system.
