Which is exactly why the XDE, at $149, specifically won't hurt bluray (as a single player).

Because only videophiles are really going to get behind the XDE.

Upconverters as a whole will "hurt" bluray, but the XDE will be a relatively insignifcant fraction of the "hurt" from upconverters overall...since the XDE is largely in part targeting the same videophiles you speak of.
