I think the problem is that Apple tries to take its “Pro” label on products seriously while other companies don’t. Macbook Pro/Mac Pro computers are “professional” devices separate from the “consumer” line Macbook/iMac/Mac Mini products, for example. They are meant for what they say they are. Vision Pro is presumably the same.
But “Pro” as a label has become synonymous with “Premium” in the industry and so they’re just the better devices for people with more money.
