Thinking about it abstractly like "people don't want headwear displays" ignores that people don't know what smart glasses are or what they would offer them and it's difficult to convey their value without a product that can fully deliver on all the promises.
I'm not sure what degree of sophistication they have to hit for people to catch on, my hunch is it needs to use transparent lenses with at least 90 degrees FOV of display, full 6DOF tracking, eye tracking and hand tracking. Vision Pro's performance capabilities are overkill, but something with it's user experience in a pair of lightweight glasses,even if it's mostly floating virtual windows and environmental overlays with simple graphics, would be self evidently useful to anyone who would try them for a few minutes.
None of the products released thus far have hit the mark, though.

There has never been any significant demand for headwear displays.
