That's what I mean though everyone understands VR to be a gaming peripheral first and foremost. Apple then came in to that market with a non-gaming focused VR headset (sorry AR special computing headset) with no obvious practical application.
What am I supposed to do with it it can't game but it also can't do anything else. I literally can't even watch YouTube videos on it. I can watch VR videos on my phone with a piece of cardboard yet this several thousand dollar device from Apple can't do that. So why would I buy it?
