In their post they say:
It seems a bit short-sighted. If they had taken AR into account they could have had all the same benefits that they have with two cameras now plus the additional AR functionality.
Yes I think they installed two cameras more for the photo world, but I think that maybe some deeper algorithm may help to have more data, as the dynamic video algorithms I had a wonderful Nokia N900 a lot of years ago and some of the camera apps allows me to measure distance (with a huge error) but it was an 8 years old phone with a 5Mpx camera.
Right now there is also the option to add some gadgets almost any phone to improve a lot of things.
I only have a little hope about it because I'm about to receive one regular one and of course I want it VR and AR lol.
