The last thing we need is a Python interpreter on an XBox. That just teaches kids they're second class citizens. Give them something like XNA where with C# they could make a proper title that could end up in the Indie Store.
The Micro Bit is way better than an Xbox in many ways. It's cheap: If you smoke it you won't be out hundreds of dollars. It's tiny: You can send it into space and use it on a small robot. It's simple: You can pretty much see everything on the board and understand it at a theoretical level with some studying.
It's like learning to drive in a go-cart before settling in to a full-sized race car. It's perfectly fine and a lot more fun since you don't have to worry as much about breaking things or killing someone.
