There's only a slim chance of history repeating here, but the olds here may recall that in the early days of discrete graphics cards, particularly before 3D took over, there were a lot of people buying graphics cards for Serious Business Reasons but really in order to play games when off the clock.

A graphics card could make your spreadsheets go faster, but that's not really why they bought them.

It's plausible, however improbable, that a VR headset targeted at Serious Business Reasons could open doors that entertainment has not. And in particular, slightly unwieldy price points that can be rationalized a bit easier.
