To give a very short answer: getting most people to purchase and commonly use a VR headset is much more difficult than getting them to purchase a light set of glasses that they can wear and use anywhere with ease. There's many more applications as well, but there is absurd potential in it still imo.

AR will be wildly expensive for the foreseeable future, and by the time we've fully democratized it there will be some new computing paradigm right around the corner. Sure, more people will likely prefer AR to VR in terms of comfort, but you need to manage your expectations. A "light set of glasses" isn't going to come within spitting distance of the resolution, FOV, contrast or brightness of even the earliest VR headsets.
