In retrospect, several things they've released were in preparation or fallout from the xrOS project.
• AR was an odd proposition for the iPhone, and lidar was an overkill for its gimmick apps, but it was obviously preparing devs and apps for the "spatial computing".
• iPadOS got mouse support, but only with a clunky fat mitten-pointer. This UI makes more sense when it's limited by eye tracking precision.
• Continuity features. Controlling a nearby iPads was a nice-to-have, but for visionPro that doesn't have its own I/O, a seamless integration with nearby devices is a must-have to get work done.
