Creating a minimum viable product at a lower price point was the the whole magic behind the first Oculus. There had been better quality virtual reality headsets before that, but bringing the price all the way into the consumer range changed the game. You may prefer higher performing, top-of-the-line-computer-requiring, headsets at a higher price point but consumer VR is a new and fast growing market segment. Any company spending their effort on such a headset is likely to find a vanishing market, as the quality of cheaper wireless devices will improve much faster than high end ones.
Don't forget, the low end always eats the high end.
