That was my very same impression... I assumed the Xbox one x would provide a better hash rate too. Im not qualified to provide any explanation I was just repeating what @therealcrypt posted in the discord channel earlier this month.
Im not the dev, just a random end user eagerly awaiting the ability to mine on Xbox. You could try asking in the discord channel, there is #dev-xbone but read only to plebs like me. But #general has all the info I posted above if you use the discord search.
Sorry I didnt have a better answer for you...
