Think about people who are waiting on more online details before they pre-order. The sooner someone finds those details, the sooner they may pre-order, which will help them accurately track consumer demand.
Detailing everything sooner may also be beneficial in evaluating how consumers respond to all the features and how they're implemented, allowing them to make changes, if needed, before the console launches or, in the case of bigger changes, start working on them ASAP so they can get to the "hands" of the consumers pretty quick.
Your first point is really what I've been saying. Pre-orders are currently sold out. People who want more details before they make a purchase would have to wait for another round of pre-orders or launch day regardless.
As for your second point, I absolutely agree with you about taking customer feedback into consideration. The biggest point that people are freaking out about is the online "app" for voice chat and matchmaking. At this point, they've given us the details we need on that and people are giving them reactions right now. They also have a free trial planned for the app before it becomes paid which allows for more feedback.
