I mean, there are plenty of other ways to demonstrate value without forcing people to login with a Facebook account to use their Oculus devices. In-fact, I'm not sure what added value this requirement demonstrates in the first place?

People already pay for the hardware, servicing, apps/games, and upgrades.

“Demonstrate added value” can be an entirely fictional construct in business environments. Don’t take it literally.
Maybe the metric they're judged on is "connections" (Taking a hint from that memo in the sibling comment) not sales or even users.
