Virtual Reality

Why do we need to have a virtual reality? Why do scientists want to create it? "Pro bono publico" (For the public good), as the ancient Romans would have said? I don't think so! Spending tons of money for research, experiments, tests? And, once we can blink and believe that we are hiking on the Himalayas, then what? Okay, you may say that you will have a wonderful experience, otherwise impossible. I accept that. But then, what will you do with your real life? Do you think that once you can choose to live in a perfect, fictitious world, you will be ready to “willingly” go back and “stay” in your daily routine... work, house, worries about money, family fights, etc.? Fake versus Real. So?
