Help understanding XISO
Download Extract-Xiso , the download option will be on the right side of the screen under “stable release” and extract it somewhere (same folder as your Xbox roms is recommended).
- original xbox not working, I've downloaded xemu and far as I know the site used to download Roms downloads them in x.iso files and when I go to play the below image is shown what can I do

I tested a bunch of Xemu (og xbox) games on Steam Deck so you don't have to
"Mod only" requires you to hexedit your games. This page has a list of hex codes to search for and then the string that you'll replace them with. To perform this, you'll need to extract the iso into a game folder, and then you'll edit the default.xbe file in the root folder. I used extract-xiso and extract-xiso-gui to do this. Drag and drop your iso onto the extract-xiso exe. One you've done your hexedits (I recommend HxD), then you can use the gui to click "create iso" and then select a folder. You can actually do all of this with just extract-xiso, but I was lazy and didn't feel like punching in dos commands to rebuild all my isos.

why can't console games be ran natively?
These projects are called compatibility layers, or "translation layers" sometimes. I think XQEmu (OG XBox on PC) works the same.

QEMU Version 6.0.0 Released
Yes:
https://xemu.app/
https://xqemu.com/
Are both original Xbox emulators built off of QEMU. I've only used Xemu, but performance was pretty good for the games I tried on it (it doesn't have a way to upscale rendering yet though).

Morrowind Rebooted the Original Xbox Without You Ever Noticing
It's indeed a bit like a kexec.
On system initialization, kernel routines are copied into RAM by the bootloader[1]. Executables run in ring 0, and have a jump table to call kernel routines in their own address space (IIRC) [2].
As such, loading any executable counts as a soft reboot.
Also, there is a functioning open source emulator, Xqemu [3] (and its sibling/fork focused on speed and compatibility more than accuracy, xemu [4])
I recommend reading "17 mistakes Microsoft made in the Xbox security system", which is very informative [5].

Experimental Nintendo Switch Emulator written in C#
There is one emulator currently that does do that, the "XQEMU" emulator for the original Xbox https://xqemu.com/
It's in its infant stages at the moment according to the "Emulation General" wiki and focuses heavily on "accuracy" over performance
Other emulators such as CXBX-Reloaded have made larger strides, currently emulating roughly 10% of the software library
It's also worth stating, while the Xbox seems like an "easy" target, being based on an ia-32 (Pentium III) PC with an Nvidia GeForce chip (somewhere between a Geforce 2 and 3 at the time) it is an absolutely monstrous beast with minimal documentation about its hardware and numerous "gotchas"
It also has a very small library of 'exclusive' content which detracts from gaining many developers
