it's probably going to take the ~$200 SteamVR faceplate (together with my current Vive Pro 2.0 base stations/controllers) to make it my favorite Wireless VR headset. Time will tell, but at least I will actually know.
Oculus Rift CV1, Valve Index & PSVR2, Asus Strix OC RTX™ 3090, i9-10900K (5.3Ghz), 32GB 3200MHz, 16TB SSD

But not at a decent price. Again. They just don't seem to learn any lessons at all from previous mistakes. And these mistakes have been repeated continuously for the last 15 years or so.
If you're going to pay $900 for a Cosmos with Vive wands and 1.0 base stations you might as well pay an extra $100 and get a Valve Index headset with 2.0 base stations and Knuckles controllers.

It's a fair point but even you are not arguing that the tracking as as good as a rift S.
For me the rift S is the absolute base level for what I want for controller tracking (and even then I would miss the superior tracking of outside in lighthouse or constellation).
The fact that even you are saying it really needs the light house module means that people concluding tracking is sub par are probably not wrong......
Yes personal experience is gonna trump 3rd person reviews.
Look at it this way.... People could tell you along with 100s of reviews TVRs are fantastic cars but godawful reliability.
You could of course discount them all and buy one yourself expecting the reliability of a family hatchback..
But you WILL be in for a shock. Impartial reviews usually are more accurate than not.

HTC new CEO confirms company’s ‘new vision,’ virtual reality, and the rivalry with Facebook
> "Our approach from a hardware perspective is more of a segmented approach, where we try to understand what the experience should be, and what our customers want. Mostly B2B enterprise. They are very, very precise. We started with a very accurate precision type of product, and we go down in terms of the precision to a normal user."
