Are they comparing it to the new Vive Kit 2 (VK2?) or the older one? Seemed for sure like the former, based on that first post anyways ("chaperone is just a grid")

But also to be fair when first Vive came out everyone was saying: look resolution is so much better than DK2, completely disregarding the fact that DK2 was a dev kit and there was already Crescent Bay out with similar specs. So HTC/Valve have to accept you have to have it both ways.
Edit: with that said this is the first time I see people saying CV1 offers better experience. That might be just down to the bugs ands errors. People that were given a dedicated demo in a hotel room seemed more impressed with the Vive.
Good news about the ergonomics and the set not wobbling when you move your head which is really annoying on DK2. Really bad news about pentile dots, I find them super distracting.
