I like the comparison with 3D movies. Since (almost) the inception of moving pictures, there has been ways to do 3D movies. And every 20-30 years there has been a push toward 3D movies. It never really caught on.
Perspective[0] is a fabulous capacity (and Renaissance "invention" for artworks). Our eyes need 3D, but our brain is just fine with a bit of fake perspective.
PS: slightly tangential but, the only personal interest I have for VR is watching movies alone as if I were in an empty theater. I find it very cool.
