Yeah it is, because now the typing glasses are an appliance, not just your regular glasses. This makes sense for VR headsets, but it's a large part of how popular Google Glass is today.

GP is saying their choice of the glasses they want to wear all day every day is nothing to do with their choice to have something transcribe words they mouth, the latter shouldn't decide or significantly restrict the former.

Yeah, my glasses are a substantial part of my personal style and I'd be sad to have to go back to something generic looking. It's been a minus with other smart glasses as well.

Also I need to wear safety glasses with side shields frequently and would really rather be able to integrate there. Particularly relevant here since that's also in noisy environments where regular speech recognition struggles.
