Back when Google Glass came out, I learned I was accidentally a good benchmark for wearable tech, in that if it's too dorky even for me, it's never going to fly.

This is solidly in that category. It's a good thing they don't mean to release it to the masses, but this is going to put a negative impression if the overwhelming majority of people who actually see the thing in real life.

Just a prediction, but Meta's going to regret having people wear this in the wild.
