I just don’t think a full immersive headset is in the interest of most people for a general computing device. Like there are really just two uses with broad appeal and one Apple doesn’t really care about much and the other will never in 1000 years be in the Apple App Store. The Vision Pro was basically DOA at that point.
Smart glasses with a HUD seems like a better compromise or a low powered, low weight immersive VR device that’s more or less just an Apple Watch until paired with a Mac which holds all the brains of the operation and just streams it to the headset
