Pencil is from Cook-era Apple. Watch has a right direction now (health & fitness which goes hand-in-hand with VR), but ultimately it is just an accessory. As Pencil is. However, they have guts to call iPad Pro a computer (as in Mac sense), so I hope this framing will translate to HMD as well, but from the beginning.

Blender 3.1 (2022-03-09) will have Metal support for rendering. Unity has already a native Apple Silicon build and Unity Hub is starting to feel like a Mac app. I think both will be demoed at the announcement. I think the support for the creative apps will be good at the launch and will get better over time.

Creating new interaction paradigms is a hard problem and it takes time. When a lot of people will have access to the hardware and developer tools, these experiments will be abundant and something will emerge. I highly recommend Daniel Beauchamp as a great example for out-of-the-box interactions in VR: https://twitter.com/pushmatrix
