I think the main difference is people are currently using smart phones to book appointments, ride public transport and find their ways to public offices. Even someone with dire financials will buy a decent smartphone as they can't afford not to. All of your examples are great, but you'd still keep a phone in your pocket while doing these activities. Another aspect to this: most of those were better done with Google Glass, but the social discussion and Google being Google just killed it. I hope the Apple devices will bring more acceptance, but once it's there I'd see other AR makers take precedence to bring better implementations than what the Vision Pro is pointing at. Heck, at this point the iPhone isn't even the global market leader, I'd totally see a Samsung like maker take the AR market and push it further, the same way their smartphones are actually pushing the enveloppe while iPhones and Pixels keep being the vanilla choice.
