You're basically speaking for the power of the PC which still makes it arguable to an extent.
I'm not going to deny that it can't be a massive powerhouse, but as games are evolving there's always the need to update your PC's hardware to make it cutting edge. Even if the gameplay and everything is far improved, it's still has that flaw and it goes back to the money factor.
Again, I don't think that the power of one platform has anything to do with being "The best", and it's a rather absurd way to look at how great a console is in my honest opinion.
EDIT: The library of games matter just as much as the power and to be honest I think the "what if's" or "Could have beens" aren't really factors to the reality of it, even thought they are possibilities and all you can't argue with the reality of it.
