They're locked down and only run consumable widgets some remote corporation deigns to permit you to do with it. In that sense, Project Scorpio can never be a PC. It'll run "Windows 10 S", which only runs what Microsoft tells you you are permitted to run. In this sense, it is no different from iOS, which I don't consider to be a personal computer operating system either.
