Why not go PC at this point. Modern consoles are locked pre-built PCs and paying $700 for a locked system is crazy.

Because of the hope that at some point someone smart will discover an exploit that will allow everyone to install their own homebrew and possibly a completely different OS which will result in a good spec PC with powerful GPU for extremely cheap.
