What one can learn about Xbox vs. PS players from looking at the K/D leaderboard

I checked the Leaderboard for BF2042 to see how many players on Xbox and Playstation respectively who have a K/D of 3.50 or above.

The result is interesting: 1137 on Xbox, but 2501 on Playstation. That’s more than twice as many.

How can that be?

I’m assuming equal skill between Xbox and Playstation players.

Did BF2042 sell a lot better on Playstation than on Xbox? That might explain some of the difference. The more players on a console platform, the more players will have a K/D of 3.50 or above, all other things being equal.

Or perhaps the controller(s) on Playstation make it easier to do well than the controller(s) on Xbox? I doubt this, but I’m not sure.

A third explanation could be that Playstation players are more competitve than Xbox players. I doubt this though; it’s probably the same for both console types.

Fourthly, maybe more people on Playstation play with mouse and keyboard compared to players on Xbox. Again, dunno. But it could certainly explain this.

Any thoughts on this?
