> Meta already sells the Quest systems basically at production cost, and just ignores the development costs It is a bit ambiguous, but it sounds like they sell the Quest at hardware cost and take the loss in all software costs and R&D. So it's irrelevant that other VR companies won't have the costs of building the OS, the headsets cannot be cheaper unless they optimize the production, which they are unlikely to do better than Meta (except perhaps for Chinese companies).
