VR headsets make it much more difficult to multitask than 3D glasses.

Honestly, this argument against 3D glasses really grates me. That's like saying the Atari 2600 shouldn't have a paddle controller because makes it too difficult to cut a head of lettuce while playing "Video Olympics".

1950s or 2020s, sometimes folks just want to sit down together and watch a movie at home, shutting out the distractions. I would argue the ritual of 3D glasses adds to those moments, like a big bowl of popcorn and a comfortable Snuggie
