Maybe this is true, but I'd hazard a guess that most developers are not web developers. [1]

Most of us aren't questioning how VR can be done in a browser, but stopping to ask why.

Perhaps because it's a really accessible platform and by baking in support now it will be mature when VR hardware is more generally accessible (2018-2019 for mobile). I'm from a game development background but accessible, interconnected, multi-user VR for all seems like it's something that will come from the web rather than bespoke attempts. Perhaps a better platform will come along with time.
