I don't feel like any truly compelling applications of VR were presented here. I find it plausible that eventually we'll find ways to leverage VR effectively for development, but we've still barely managed to make a mouse useful for coding, so it feels like it's probably a long way off.

I feel that it will start with developers using VR/AR tech to make an "infinitely large monitor" workstation (once the resolution and focus mechanics are good enough).

Only once such setups are ubiquitous will we start seeing code break free from the confines of 2 dimensional text. But in general, I agree with you. Most coders today still rely on environments that essentially assume the teletype as the lowest common denominator.
