>The minute, someone uses VR to gain/master skills 5x-10x times faster than regular users, everyone will switch to VR. I have little doubt that this is the killer VR app that we just haven't found a way to deploy yet - Imagine, say, an auto manufacturer issuing a digital twin of their vehicle to mechanics that includes walkthroughs for each maintenance procedure. The scaffolding on both the production and consumption sides which would be necessary to support this are significant, though.

A mechanic can read a repair manual much faster than watching a walkthrough.
He isn't going to watch a walkthrough he is going to repair it in VR. Learning by doing.
