The Vision Pro could (in terms of hardware) be the Mac successor. Just the virtual Mac screen feature alone is great ... but the rest is "It's an iPad! But in 3D!" Ugh.
Don't underestimate the power of Apple's dream of locking everything down.
Apple's priorities (as Daring Fireball notes), are Apple, customers, something, something, something, ...., developers and suppliers.
I think Tim Cook missed his chance to leave a Steve Jobs like mark on Apple when he championed a next generation graphical interface on next generation hardware, but only for toy apps and media.
And for those that think "what could 3D/spacial really do for interfaces?", don't think exciting, just think about the simple perks that grow into usefulness, like your entire environment being (Mac-level capable) screens as you work. Consider how much of the real world and its activities, problems and structure are in 3D. And how people adapted to 2D graphical interfaces not because "wow!", but because many mundane things, like editing a table and writing a letter, got easier. And a lot of new mundane things became possible/practical.
That won't happen on a Vision "Pro" limited to being a toy app platform, media kiosk, and Apple iCloud services recurring revenue store front.
The software limitations are why it isn't worth the price, not the hardware.
The negativity here climbs up out of my deep love for my Vision Pro.
