You are correct, XO-Chip is a fantasy console imagined in the vein of Chip-8 as a reasonable extension without crossing over into something like Pico-8 or trying to make Gameboy game etc. There are no "realistic" models for what XO-Chip could or couldn't do because it never existed. This is all just for fun. :)
