Because finger controls, even though they are much better in Hololens2 than in the original version, aren’t precise enough to be productive. Magic Leap does, and that was the core reason investors gave Magic Leap $2 billion. You are better off using a pen on a Wacom tablet or on an iPad screen or a mouse.

For instance, the old Siri understands me just fine when I ask it “how many people are checked in on Foursquare at the New York City Ritz?” If you haven’t seen a Microsoft Hololens or a Magic Leap you probably have no clue about how amazing this will be. What could this do?
