I personally often use multiple flat 4k screens in VR too. But it’s only one of the options I have there. Can also just be there in 3D. Modern headsets with pancake lenses resolve 4k just as clearly as flatscreens now, so distant objects or small objects are equally visible as a physical 4k screen.
You can still use all the physical cockpit stuff with some VR headsets. Most ideally, the Quest pro, as it also has pancake lenses. Quest pro only covers the top 2/3rds of your field of view, leaving anything on your desk still perfectly visible/interactible. It’s also designed to be worn with glasses on, rather than getting prescription lenses for it. I do recommend a third party forehead pad, the default one doesn’t fit all foreheads well. I could only wear it for about 2 hours out of the box, with a 30 dollar pad replacement I can wear it infinitely, 16 hours plus.
For people that don’t have real-life stuff they want to see while in VR, Quest 3 is the better option. For non-meta headsets, pico has one with pancake lenses, and I think varjo has a couple. Bigscreen beyond is popular with some people. But yeah, it’s hard to find a good headset worth recommending for people who won’t touch meta stuff. Other headsets drawbacks are pretty prominent. And while I’m no fan of meta, them being the maker of my headsets hasn’t actually come with any downside. Where as the money they have put into VR has brought huge upsides.
