I think you’re missing the shear size of the thing (much larger than any IMAX—this is an 18,000 person venue vs ~500 for the largest IMAX), clarity of the interior dome (yes, it’s like IMAX), brightness of the interior dome (it’s a super bright LED screen and provides all lighting in the venue—not projection), and audio (hearing is believing—the “beam forming” tech has the presence of an arena show without the ear fatigue and can also feel intimate almost like an acoustic cafe show).
The screen to some extent will be dependent on content produced for it (some very cool optical illusions are possible with a spherical screen), but I hope the audio tech will make its way into most large music venues over the next few decades—it’s just that good.
