The market already answered for the time being: none of them. This is space is an R&D sinkhole, all what companies do is make land grabs for an imagined future.
They inferred it because those companies were left out of your category of the "last thing you'd want". Anything left out would be categorized as "not the last thing you'd want" when there are parallels in the omitted yet well known offerings.
You don't have to make a statement about ranking them when you said "the last thing you'd want". Figure of speech or not. It seems telling to the reader when discussing XR to leave them out, that's all. You could have just clarified and called it a day.
The fact that we're being so pedantic now instead of discussing our actual opinion is making me more certain that your purpose was not to have a discussion so I'll shutup now.
My initial point was a really that there are terrible privacy implications and poor track record of actually treating the customer well, as if that wasn't obvious.
As for the rest, I'm just pissed off with people throwing their words into my mouth. Oh there we go again.
The vast majority of people in the world don't own any VR device as of today, and likely never will. I don't see there is a "be forced to" thing happening.
I can't see that happening at all. The idea gives little utility over the top of the last big leap (smart phones) with a lot of additional costs and problems.
