Interesting that Apple is going with spatial. Spatial vs metaverse vs virtual worlds vs 3-D Spatial and 3-D sound a little more device-related vs metaverse and virtual world more network-related

Absolutely. Spacial is a new computing interface like multitouch or the GUI/Mouse. Metaverse is an application (or set of meta-applications) you can access on a number of computing interfaces. To me this makes perfect sense and never understood why Meta was trying to make metaverses only in VR.

“Metaverse” and “virtual” are both nerd-coded Spatial sounds classy and futuristic

Don’t you think it also has to do with product marketing and branding? Apple effectively owns the world “spatial” relative to auditory senses, it can easily ladder into the visual sense using the same.

Spatial sounds more XR than metaverse and virtual worlds. Space includes the real world
