"All of the AR experiences that I have seen ...are ... far less compelling than what we have seen so far in VR."
The point of AR is not to offer compelling experiences, it's point is to expedite real world industrial and service processes and planning.
Don't think of how cool it's supposed to look. Think how much it saves when the maintenance crew can navigate a new building as easily as in a video game. The selling point is not to have some cool experiences. The selling point is to have for the repair crew a navigation track to the maintenance item, and a red arrow pointing to it.
