If that’s the case the commercial market should be buying up PSVRs and Quest 3s in mass.

Both of those are locked down platforms. For that reason. That's the whole point.

You can stream PC software to a quest 3, you can sideload apps, and PSVR has a PC adapter.

Just because you can stream content from a PC doesn't make it an open platform. Most applications require being able to be run unrestricted on the local device.

The unrestricted access I'm referring to is at the OS level. Lots of developers need that.

Yeah and Meta used to sell enterprise editions of the Quest 3 that would fit these needs.

Something they stopped because the market doesn’t exist.
