Why is it being made for the 360?

Does this bother anyone else?

I have a feeling a next gen version of Destiny would be only marginally better visuals and still possess the same core gameplay, or else they would effectively be producing two different games. Why would Bungie sell themselves short with Destiny by making it for 360 when they could go all-out on the next-gen systems?

I want Destiny to be next-gen only. Push the envelope, Bungie.

I thought Destiny would be 360 and PS3 (and PC?) only. Making it for next gen consoles doesn't make much sense given how long ago development started and how that development is just now in its final stages.
