Its just not obvious to people because the headsets are bulky and awkward and the virtual reality is not very real yet.
But the new headset is a big improvement in terms of comfort and performance.
But as they shrink down and become more capable, VR/AR headsets, goggles, glasses will almost certainly be the preferred interface for a majority of people within 5 years or so.

To start to understand, think about whether you would like 3 free 42" monitors that could magically hover over your desk. Or if you would like to be able to teleport to your friend's house without actually moving.
Within a decade, using completely 2d interfaces for many computing tasks will be outdated. People will interact with 3d widgets and representations. A lot of the trendiest places to meet will be completely realistic locations in virtual or mixed reality.
