While I understand what you mean, you gotta be extremely strapped for space for that to be a true argument. For the 500 bucks a Meta Quest will cost, you could get a pretty decent 4K TV or display. Definitely not the best thing around but its potential uses case and potential future usefulness infinitely better ?!

Personally, I still think VR is mostly something like 3D TV/movies where you end up paying a lot more for nothing of real value, just a novelty factor.
