Not that I can see...I think you nailed it right there. I immediately imagined how it would integrate with what I do now, regardless of the price tag. Would it help in my work or anything else? Not that I can see currently, if anything it would slow me down and make me less efficient.
Entertainment wise my 75 inch TV and surround sound are more than enough. Which brings up another point, most of the time I don't want something on my head and to be immersed. Most of the time my partner and I's leisure time is focused on lounging around the couch. We have something on in the background, chatting casually about something, looking at stuff or playing games on our phones, in between playing with the puppy, etc. Why would we pay $7K+ that makes that more difficult and doesn't add anything to the experience. If I was single and more isolated I could certainly see this working well, minus attention for the puppy, guess it would have to be a virtual pet.
Seems like we have similar tastes in gaming.
If you're into South Park, I highly recommend their 2 games Stick of Truth and Fractured Butt Whole (think they are working on a third). I've played through a bunch of times and still enjoy replaying them. Available on pretty much any platform.
Another game I really, really enjoyed was Golf Story. A very cool mixture of genres and very relaxing to play. This is a Switch exclusive, but you can play this via emulation if that's your cup of tea. They also have a new one called Sports Story (haven't played yet), but is on my list of play next games.
Other honorable mentions are Eastward, Shipwreck, Sam and Max Beyond Space and Time, Destroy all Humans, and Leisure Suit Larry. I also go down the emulation route quite often to play old arcade favorites and consoles like SNES.
