> Though it would be nice if everyone could get on an open standard, like [OpenXR] Isn't this already the case? As far as I'm aware all major headsets support OpenXR, it's the games that are lagging behind. Hopefully this is going to include Apple, of course.

You're right about headsets, it's more about the tools for building that need to be on standards. This is where the pain comes for developers. It's like iOS v Android v web, we have to build 3 frontends today. With VR/XR that pain could be worse, because the libraries and modalities can add to the complexity. I suspect this will come down to Apple deciding if they want to play nice with everyone or build a moat by making snowflakes. Maybe our tools like Unity can manage this, to reduce the pain...?
