Your idea is interesting (if not practical) because it opens up some weird questions, like: what if Second Life were a life simulator for some people, but a FPS zombie shooter for other people? Or: what if Fortnite became a dating app, like Instagram has over time?

Your PoC at least proves that you don't actually need cooperation between developers to achieve something. You just need a compatibility layer.
