the utility/superiority of 3D/VR over 2D is a lot like the utility/superiority of GUI over CLI/text. at first, the former appears superior. certainly to newbs and casuals. but the vast majority of real work, true work by smart folks, occurs by folks focused on the latter. It's not that there are no niches and no use cases where the former is better, it's that the vast majority of truly necessary cases are best handled by the latter. the latter has an additional benefit/advantage that you can build the former atop the latter, if/when needed.
