Considering the Xbox 360 sold ~75million units and they have roughly half of that number in XBL subscribers, I don't think they care much about people without internet. Best case scenario, everyone who bought a 360 also bought a Slim Model and they are all connected. Worst case, only half of those that bought a 360 are connected to XBL. Either way, the chances are people without internet actually spending $500 on a console are probably pretty slim.
The only real concern I see is for people outside of the US with low data caps because we don't know exactly how much data the Xbox One uses.
I'd say a potential 20 million not buying the console is enough to care about. Heck I'd say every single loss of sale because of a stupid DRM scheme should be enough to care about.
Plenty of people who love video games without Internet have money; I bought mine when I lived on a farm and we had dial up because high speed couldn't reach us. Guess I didn't deserve it?
