they hold an effective monopoly on PC game sales

Did I say Steam games? I said games.

there really is not much of a non-gaming market for VR hardware

Uhhhh yes? There's an enormous commercial market. One that will grow larger with this headset being released.

    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.
