Idk how Microsoft has bungled this naming

You haven't followed been following Microsoft for long have you? The first version of Windows was version 3.0 (there were technically earlier versions but they were "a work in progress" and weren't really usable at all). The third version of Xbox was called "Xbox One".

I have been using Windows since before 3.0.

Your point, while comical, is kind of irrelevant as far as naming two independent products the same thing.
