It feels extremely brute forced.
I would have assumed that they had waited until they had transparent displays that were better than everyone's, or had some unique way of combining passthrough and normal cameras that were better than others, but they really just announced basically a Quest Pro with some 3DS displays slapped to the outside. I'm pretty sure everyone at Meta's reality Labs division sighed a pretty big sigh of relief, I suspect they were all worried that it was going to be an iPhone launch where everyone at Blackberry realized they were working on completely the wrong tech, and instead they just witnessed them launch a fancy and expensive version of what they're already making for the mass market.
