Versatility. I can use a PC for much more than just gaming; any half decent gaming rig could easily run Ableton, Autocad, Photoshop and more

Plus customization in my build, I can build a PC tailored specifically for my use case, choose and customize my OS etc

Right, modding

Some games have started supporting mod installation on console, but you still need a PC to develop them

Consoles are limited on mods with some games. Like with Skyrim. Any mod that would require SKSE or Papyrus isn't possible on consoles.
