Technology works best when it gets out of your way so you can do the thing you require. Smart phones are the best example of this as they are small enough to fit in a pocket out of the way when not needed, and smart enough to deliver the data you need almost instantly. A TV is (usually) out of the way mounted on a wall, and you interact with it using a small handheld device. It is instant-on/off, requires no setup to use every day. Smart glasses, VR headsets, etc are the exact opposite. No one likes putting a VR headset on, keeping the kit charged and dealing with all the cables. If a VR headset where a pair of glasses without cables then maybe...but we don't have the technology for that yet. Perhaps that's where Zuck will be putting all of his billions. Once you're inside the "metaverse" and want to shop for new shoes (real) are you going to have to fly/walk to a virtual shop? With my smartphone I can do that in under 10 seconds.
