Mixed reality can refer to both AR and VR, so it's actually less specific. https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/mixed-reality/disc...

Apples definition of MR (Merged Reality) is "AR" (Augmented Reality) through cameras in a VR (Virtual Reality) interface. That means that it fully covers the eyes and can minimize the issues with outdoor lighting levels and precise alignment of projection over reality (If you move your head quickly AR will always be behind reality while camera images can be overlaid with minimal constant delay).
