There's 23w wireless charging with pixel 7 pro. That's faster than what most people have for charging blocks.

And I think you vastly underestimate how many regular iPhone users make sure they use quick charge... Which is only done with USBc and a lightning cable.

And that's at 20w which is what the iPhone 13 maxes out at unless it's a pro which is 27w but only for a short period.

Serviceable is the right word though. You don't really convert the vast majority of people to a new fairly expensive unfamiliar tech with a serviceable experience. I've used quest 2 and vive. The quest 2 standalone tech is clearly the path forward but the FOV kills me as all as the refresh rate. Anyhow software is sort of a chicken and egg problem. It takes a lot of effort and money to make a great VR experience and unless there's overwhelming confidence in the tech OR a large enough owner base the software won't come. In general I think that clearly shows both users and developers don't believe the tech is ready.
