What's doublely stupid is that a developer would have to spend the exact same amount of money to be able to develop an app for the headset. They're not going to do that unless they reasonably sure they're going to make their money back.
Probably the dev would have to spend more, usually Dev kits come with a bunch of handy features for debugging/testing, but including SDK and licensing yeah, more money.
With Apple the devkit would be a Mac that can run the latest version of Xcode same as any other Apple dev workflow.
Don't you think the goggles would be useful?
In any case I looked it up, seems like apple will just lent them out if you have a solid pitch for a VR APP:
