Yeah, well, don't tell the local patrons, I'm in like post a hundred below of "how dare you acknowledge anything remotely serviceably about a Meta-related product".
But yeah, no, you're pretty much right. They're subsidizing a huge chunk of that entire corner of tech. I don't think it's a mainstream type of device, but I'm glad we all got to spend a few years messing with it as a semi-viable consumer product, even if it's just a bit of an overengineered novelty thing.
