To clarify one thing: I am speaking here not of what I think will drive adoption generally. I am only following my comment (emphasis added):
Also, to stress the "doesn't exist yet" part... none of what I'm about to describe exists. I know that I can buy this extension, that plugin, duct tape, popsicle sticks, usb thumb drives, read the Lord of the Rings Appendices and the Star Wars EU novels, but that doesn't solve my problem. The technology that doesn't exist yet is the AI to self-contain ALL of this in one seamless system that for all intents and purposes is completely transparent to me and what I'm interacting with may as well be a human assistant. With that in mind:
I would use MR if it could anticipate my needs, basically Jarvis-from-Iron Man level AI... a personal assistant. I'm running low on milk. Jarvis orders it. Air filter in the car needs replacing, service scheduled. I had a conversation with two managers in finance about a systems issue and probably need to talk to IT Ops to fix, meeting scheduled. There's 75% chance that my right kidney is inefficient, diagnostic bloodwork scheduled, appointment time, directions, etc., added to my calendar. Carbon Monoxide filter in the hallway batteries are low, ordered replacement. Contractor working on my kitchen says it's going to cost $12,000 more than planned. Arguing is a waste of my time, so Jarvis does the arguing for me... and to do this all in the background and give me a periodic update like a real employee, instead of prompting me for input constantly.
EDIT: The visual element of this would not be a barrage of graphics... that isn't that useful to me. It's really about harmonizing between visual input and systems input to intelligently identify issues that need addressing. Visual markers may be useful to some extent, but it's been my experience with UI/UX that all the complexity is really under the hood and not in the display of what Edward Tufte called
chartjunk.
And it—camera, display, GPU/APU, battery, everything, etc.—has to be all sandwiched into prescription lenses that can be cut to fit any frame of my choosing (just like normal prescription lenses), which currently is this:

This frees me up to live more of my life instead of working 16 hours a day.
