The fact is well known and obvious to anyone so I don't see how anything is being hidden by anyone.

I'm not sure where the confusion is coming from. The fact still stands that it's an achievement for an open source DIY project to come close to Oculus Go specs. The original comment was asking a rhetorical question to make that point.

If Oculus Go was open source, it would cost you much more than the retail price to manufacture it.

The people in the know who believe it's obvious will be the same people who know the price of an oculus.

As for the rest of us. We neither know the price of an oculus $150? or that an oculus isn't as open source as other products.

Valid point for the rest of us.
