How much do you know about VR? I can assure you, as someone who uses a VR headset every day, most of these generalizations are false.

Our experience is completely different then I guess?

Size changes but sweaty? Yes, you can even grab scuba glasses and humidity and heat will build up normally even if you stand in a living room. Strapped? Obviously. Makes you absent from the place you are at? AR can fix that I hope, but the feeling of being "somewhere else" is absolutely, completely there. A person can't just interact with you while you are using VR, you are in a different space in terms of interaction.

I've used VR dozens of times and all of these look like completely legitimate concerns.

I don't even like wearing over-ear headphones because they make me feel too hot. Assuming the worst for a large headset is not a stretch at all.

I don't think they're either true or false, I think they're subjective. Some people will like this product, others won't.
