I own only cardboard, VR headsets should be self-sufficient, no cables. Hey, even smartphone is not light enough, VR/AR glasses might be.

Well, I'm seeing it on my computer screen and cannot compare to reality. OP stated btw "Back then, we all imagined that by the next decade, we would have 16K photorealistic high field of view VR.",
I welcome you to confirm (if you personally believe so) your VR see-through looks to you same as w/out headset on your head.

Why people still do not use them as monitors replacements? Well, IMO there are heavy.

I doubt it is more than normal human eye can see (I mean angle resolution). For stable image (to take GPU speed out of the picture, can you disable tracking?), do you perceive visual VR quality not less than reality? I doubt it, do you?

> We can pump out software quickly
Cardboard is there for many years now. How easy and quick to develop Linux VR desktop for smartphones? I'm waiting for it long time, even ordinary GNU/Linux - AKAIK only one modern smartphone runs it (pine), whereas all desktops/laptops I now run Linux more or less (for less I mean Mac).
E.g. even for pine it now takes years for make e-ink reader with Linux, AFAIK they sell still for developers only.

So many options missed:
- as mentioned Theseus ship - question has no answer
- gradually along replacement
- sometime after the procedure (no immortality, e.g. LED burn out, admittedly later than OLED, but still AFAIK do).
- never as death in an illusion (it is not classic immortality IMO).

Because it already took much more, starting with making first transistor, or even maybe making first tool thousands years ago, or ...
