Apple wants this to be primarily for A/R - not V/R. V/R is inherently isolating to users and those around the users. A/R allows a person to be present in reality, yet it’s greatly enhanced. I think that’s what they are after.

There are no slashes between VR and AR and reading those feels like stubbing my toe

I think the root issue is your first two words: "Apple wants". I have and use mostly Apple devices but I will say that often when I'm feeling friction it's because of a difference between what Apple wants and what I want and them having set things up so I don't have a choice.

This feels like one of those things. Apple wants AV to be something in particular but because XR offers so many possibilities I fear their limits are going to feel extra limiting.
