This is true, but if they saw a big enough market they'd have worked these issues out (i.e. agreed on a uniform standard). I think the fact that they didn't think it was worth doing tells you all you need to know.

No one wanted to give up. Fortunately I can still get current 3D videos from overseas

Whether they wanted to give up or not is irrelevant -- the market wasn't there so it didn't make sense to continue. People just weren't interested in 3D TVs.

Vision Pro is a pretty good software OS/platform already, released on dramatically compromised hardware. And it's one of those fun things where it kinda needs, like, multiple major technology breakthroughs (smaller/improved battery tech and good transparent displays at least) - as well as being at least reduced to half the price! - before it can even start to be a product for more than a fraction of a percentage of the population. It's an incredibly long game and Apple can afford to play it, but whether they will or not remains to be seen.
