I feel like the person you are replying to will one day be saying "I was right at the time. Those early headsets were a joke. I don't think anybody had a use for them back then". And they would basically be right. As things stand the J curve of hypecycle expectation is up against the wall of unamazing outcomes. But I think digitally enhanced 3D spaces as a non verbal natural language interface for HCI is only a shadow so far of what is possible. 3D just works better than 2D for a wide range of things people do everyday; and better tends to win out in the long run.
