Yeah I call BS on that, how is the emulator that was used on the Xbox 360 more capable of playing titles than the Xbox One implementation? The 360 could play half of the original Xbox library. There is no reason they cannot adapt a general purpose emulator that can read discs directly, nothing stopping Sony from doing that either.
You cut off the quantifier "and legal limits". On the 360 it played what was on the disk. On the later consoles it just used the disk as a key to download a new version on the game. That download has a new executable and was legally a new version of the game that needed permission from the publisher to distribute.

Backwards compatible on the 360 was general purpose, on the later consoles is a virtual machine.
