Yeah it's kind of mind-boggling to me that the creators of React (which SwiftUI is ofc heavily inspired by) and the most successful cross-platform quasi-native library (React Native), have not managed to bring those powers to their biggest investment.

I truly don't get it.

I wonder if it's being used internally? Just looked back on the blog post and they actually say "Although most of the development for VR will still be internal, we hope to share more as soon as we can. We also anticipate that improvements to React Native for VR will surface in open source." Makes me wonder if possibly they are using it to create some app themselves, would be interesting to decompile some APKs and see.
