VR wasn't here to stay - at least for how it is now. Hopefully they are leaving VR behind to focus on the pragmatic potential of AR.

Microsoft was the first to invest heavily in AR. It was a giant flop. VR has sustained itself, but microsofts neutered attempts at it after the AR failure made them fail there, too. VR is doing fine. AR died long ago.
You clearly lack understanding of the industry's current stance on these technologies. It's crucial to be informed before making such statements. The industry has largely disregarded VR, its only significant presence being in gaming, where it remains unimpressive. In contrast, AR is revolutionizing XR applications across various sectors. It offers numerous opportunities to optimize workflows and enhance work experiences. Consider Microsoft's recent release of MRTK3, which further sidelines VR. Think carefully about the reality of the industry before making unfounded statements.
