I agree.  What one might want is something that isn't poor quality,
but still not pursue perfection to the point of being excessively
expensive.  This balance is important for product made for the masses.

The further technology rolls on, the "withstandable priced 3D camera"
comes closer toward what wem might call the perfection end of the quality
spectrum.

In other words, one wants to "delay" any major attempt until the
technology has reached a suitable point for success.

Having something of "acceptable quality" for the masses provides a
larger high-end niche market for designers to pursue with bigger
budgets.  So all can gain.  And the technology of the mid-range
3D cameras don't necessarily need to be that of the high end.  The
mass-cameras only need to succeed enough to create a larger high
end market.
