If you're doing development for a VR application it's the way to go. Having to put the headset back on repeatedly to check out a change is annoying. I'd prefer all my meetings to be in VR as well since zoom is such a soulless and anti-social experience. My current work setup involves a 43" TV used as a main monitor so I can actually have enough room in the Unreal Editor to do shit plus 2 more monitors on the side for reference and other tools. I'm thinking of adding a couple more monitors since I still have to juggle windows sometimes. Being able to just have as many monitors as I needed at any one time positioned and sized perfectly would be a dream. Even when I'm doing non-VR development work I believe I'd benefit from this. The dealbreaker is how comfortable the headset is, I haven't tried the Quest Pro yet but it looks like they're moving in the right direction for comfort.

Have you ever tried virtual desktops? It was a huge benefit for me.
