You're just wrong about this, sorry -- your comments make it sound like you haven't put time in with one, and if you haven't, then it might be you could become more informed by talking with someone who has.
To respond to how you imagine me, I have no need to "justify" my purchase; for reference I don't use it that often, and I'm glad I bought it for a peek into the future. You may notice that I said I have a Magic Leap 2 -- significantly more expensive, and used for under 2 hours -- I would not recommend someone even try it out. And I wouldn't even say I regret buying that -- it's useful to see what $8bn of early tech development gets you, and they did some things amazingly well.
Further, I am fully aware of the use cycle of VR goggles, see my above list of devices I've purchased.
These goggles are really not VR, and it's a mistake to think they are without using them. For instance, on a plane, wearing the vision pro, when a stewardess approaches you, the AVP notice a human is entering your field of vision, and blur them in to the scene, regardless of what you're doing.
Is this world changing? No. Is it "VR with passthrough"? Nope. It's a much harder thing, a spatially aware pipeline (one that can recognize humans) interjecting itself into a rendering pipeline. There are a number of these little moments with the AVP that show Apple did the hard, very hard work to build a new OS pipeline. Right now, they're using it for entertainment, and if you're wealthy enough, they're a great purchase for a plane ride. They cost less than a business class upgrade, and they make the flight go away.
Later, I predict if they stick with it, the IP and knowhow they're building here are going to be super valuable.
