What will the GoPro mount solve?

> and just had a row of buttons on the side apps can use. Then just bind them to few common camera features rather than fidding with fucking touchscreen.

That would be amazing.

Totally different use case though. That's chest mounted pointing down. Sure, useful for some. Perfect for something like cooking.

The benefit here I think is a more literal WYSIWYG - what you see is what you get. You see it, you get the photo of it.

Its still offset. If I turn my head sideways to look between something or under a car or anything close to the face really is out of focus or not even in view.

Doing this especially while jumping around is an excellent way to injure your teeth.
