I imagine it'd be handled kind of like how McDonald's "1,2,3 Dollar menu" doesn't have a single item under 2 dollars in my area.

That's a solid argument toward using an AVP vs a traditional PCVR set up.

... So why not just do that for a fraction of the price on the Quest 3? I do everything you listed on mine, I even take it with me when I travel without any perceived constraints. I, too, can use Steam Link (although I prefer Virtual Remote Desktop currently) and even found myself making some use of the new Xbox GamePass app, and yes, it also pairs with my controller, and my Logitech keyboard and mouse too.

I understand the AVP can fill a wider role than a standard PCVR gaming rig set up, but I feel what you describe as something to compare with the AVP is honestly kind of outdated.

Appears to me that, when they had the toilet sitting in the now-carpeted room as contractors worked on the flooring in the bathroom, a contractor tasked with applying carpet to the room the toilet was temporarily being stored in had a typical "not my job" moment and laid down the carpet everywhere except where the toilet was temporarily being placed.

You can even see the garish cut the contractor made on the right hand side of the hole so he could get the carpet to lay into the corner, behind the toilet, instead of simply moving it.
