To go VR or not, that is the question

I’m used to ride a bicycle in a helmet, so I can also spend hours with Crystal on my head. I’m using Apache strap which helps with comfort and for MSFS experience (no abrupt head movements) the Crystal sits tight and I have zero issues with sweet spot. In my experience the clarity of Crystal running at full resolution is better then 4K display. When it comes to FPS Crystal running at full res requires 6 times more pixels than one 4K display, so indeed one 4K display allows more FPS. But 35-45 FPS in Crystal is enough for me when flying docile civilian planes.
VR is highly personal, so we all may have different perception.
BTW: I fly 100% GA VFR (in sim and IRL). In sim nearly 100% of my flying is VFR GA on VATSIM. And 100% VR, only VR resembles real world flying for me enough to be enjoyable (only in VR I can judged the base turn (you must look 135 degrees back) and flare height properly.
