Like a lot of hyped things, people still can't actually functionally figure out good VR/AR applications that people would willingly strap a hot, heavy headset to their face for long periods. Nobody has time for that, most people are social and want to actually be around other people and not behind headsets. The terminally online and introverted are in the minority in humanity.

People who drive around wearing them in their Cybertrucks are a special subset of stupid. They obviously have not figured out anything helpful to do with them, either. This is why they are doing dangerous stunts instead of anything useful.

Also Valve is still a pretty big name in VR and I wouldn't ignore the work they have done and seem to be continuing to do based on the Valve Index and rumors swirling about an Index 2 in the works. Valve is probably one of the few major players who take some amount of openness to their approach.
