Everyone's experience is different in VR, there are people working in immersed 8+ hours a day without issue. Sounds like you didn't enjoy it and want to blow off a little steam
The original links, if you look, are about their new hardware, which is ultra-lightweight, and higher res, 4k per eye
I'm not trying to travel with external monitors, hence why I'm looking for a virtual solution, and this looks quite promising
I'm not blowing off steam I'm sharing my lives experience with a previous versions on older hardware. I was about 10 seconds from buying the initial prototype kick start. I'm very aware of the proposed specs which they currently are not shipping due to supply and find constraints.
I don't have anything against immersed. I chatted with them several times and gave feedback every time. They're nice folks. I'm not sure they're gonna ship. And after that experience I'm also pessimistic on vr for desktop for several years at minimum.
And travel monitors are just gonna get better. My m2pro is already light, the externals I can see getting half the weight, 4k and possibly wireless. That'd be more compute in a smaller space and lighter weight than that Dell desktop replacement I plugged around in 2003, and smaller but heavier than the simula. I haven't had a chance to try foveated text on 8k but my math says it's lower density than 4k at arms length on a 17 or 27 monitor so but let's call that a win.

So equivalent experience.
