At this point, I think issue is not about products Google build, it is about how Google put their incentives in place.
- Build new shiny thing -> promoted
- Support shiny thing -> it's not difficult, everyone can do it
This type of culture is influencing future direction of Google products, they put together awesome team, solve problem and get from 0 to 1, then team moves on, others don't have incentive to make 1 to 100.
I feel like, if this was a startup which highly depends on the success of product for their existence they could have pivoted or come up better ideas for adoption. Maybe, Magic Leap was that company, or they got too much investment and thought they will exist for a quite while
