I'd agree that this idea seems rather vague but it's becoming increasingly common for social interactions to happen "over-the-wire", e.g. TikTok / Whatsapp / World of Warcraft. I believe that mentions of the "metaverse" are pointing to this trend.

I think the fact that it's so vague ultimately serves Meta when it allows their company initiatives to lack a certain definition (keeping shareholder trust that much higher despite the CEO whom they cannot rein in).
