Vision Pro is both more expensive than decent work equipment (but less expensive than top-of-the-line work equipment) and also potentially far more ergonomic than top-of-the-line work equipment. If it delivers on its marketing, it does also replace a significant amount of typical equipment: definitely monitors and potentially also desk, chair, and input devices (less likely).

More importantly, the article was only about the Vision Pro as the first step in a long journey. Vision Pro leaves a lot to be desired and, as you noted, is priced prohibitively. But if you squint, you can see a future where we are able to work productively without incurring the physical costs of the current computing form factors.
