It's interesting that the list of the key sessions are mostly the sessions that do no cover visionOS.
Compare that with the facts that ~25% of the WWDC sessions were centered on visionOS (*) and that there were more specific sessions for Apple Watch and CarPlay than for the Mac.
It's as if nobody at Apple had a clue which platforms 3rd party developers are targeting outside of iOS.
* this is also surprising considering the small amount of time dedicated to the Vision Pro during the keynote.
