This might be a bad take but it seems like a worse version of HoloLense. Just glancing at the pros/cons list seems like HoloLense already covered this ground at a similar price point

HoloLens have much worse display quality

That's a fair point but HoloLens also didn't block your vision to the environment. I imagine with today's tech, it would've been able to deliver comparable or at least 80% of the image quality while still not needing passthrough and still allowing you to pin screens everywhere.

That's the trade-off. Vision uses the passthrough approach to have a much better display at the cost of actual vision & others seeing your uncanny eyes. Hopefully AR or EyeSight improves.
