They were a $3500 dev-kit to enable some base level of preparation when the costs come down. They were never going to be mainstream.

I mean did anyone think of the vision pro as more than a very expensive tech demo? It was always too big, too heavy to be viewed as something people were expected to wear all day long.
Why do people think you're supposed to wear that all day long? I don't think it was ever marketed as a permanent piece of headwear.
I've always assumed that every VR or AR system was intended to be used for a session and taken off, seems obvious.
I don’t think Apple themselves marketed it this way, but viral photos of people being spotted on subways and walking down the street wearing one probably didn’t help sell the product.
