Apple Vision Pro launch pre-view testers complain about weight, comfort, even headaches::Reporters given pre-launch access to the new Apple Vision Pro have reported concerns with its weight and comfort, with at least two writers reporting notable discomfort using it. While there are undoubtedly positive experiences to be had with the product, it wasn’t just discomfort that was problematic.

Perhaps, but folks are still wriggling around trying to make it happen. That and this being more an AR/VR hybrid (XR they called it? barf) along with apple's usual polish (and ardent reality distortion field susceptible consumer base) could make a difference. Maybe. Also, dead can mean different things, no? There is a market for driving wheels and seats and such for racing games but it isn't widespread like having a playstation is. I wouldn't say driving peripherals were dead but just niche. That's probably covered with your "consumer" descriptor of VR vs. what might be called an enthusiast market though. I appreciate the casting of your opinion to posterity.
