Perhaps the better question is why doesn’t ASML charge far more?

Try it. I find it very beneficial for focusing on things which are necessary but uninteresting.

Vision Pro is both more expensive than decent work equipment (but less expensive than top-of-the-line work equipment) and also potentially far more ergonomic than top-of-the-line work equipment. If it delivers on its marketing, it does also replace a significant amount of typical equipment: definitely monitors and potentially also desk, chair, and input devices (less likely).

More importantly, the article was only about the Vision Pro as the first step in a long journey. Vision Pro leaves a lot to be desired and, as you noted, is priced prohibitively. But if you squint, you can see a future where we are able to work productively without incurring the physical costs of the current computing form factors.

While you're here, you should know that the logic for enabling GPT-4 API access is excluding Microsoft for Startups (https://openai.com/microsoft-for-startups) orgs which have valid billing against Microsoft-provided credits. Presumably, this is an oversight as it wouldn't make sense to exclude pre-existing Microsoft partners. Would you mind escalating this?

Because, as a registrar, they are not allowed to just shut it down.

More seriously, Google's culture seems fundamentally incapable of longterm investment in anything that isn't directly related to their core advertising business, even if that thing is an onramp to their core offerings (as you pointed out). It's sad and frustrating to observe.
