This is the cheapest and most polished dev kit ever.

Compare it to the Playstation 1 dev kit. In 1994 dollars it cost $15,000 for a full devkit.

Except for every device that doesn't need a separate dev kit for development.

A better comparison would be 2024 Quest dev kit which costs less than half of Vision.

Except that wouldn't be a first-gen product and doesn't have the same capabilities so no... that wouldn't be a better comparison. Does a Quest Dev Kit even exist in 2024? I thought you just buy the headset now?

And that's... a downside?

I never said that. I was only arguing against the idea that that was an equal (or more suitable) comparison.
