Is anybody aside from Apple die-hards actually excited about this? The whole thing seems like a solution desperately searching for a problem. Expensive, you have to make an Apple store appointment to get one, will be perpetually low stock, only a few apps will be available for it, and will any games be available for it? I'm sure some die-hards will make an effort to use it constantly and be very vocal about how revolutionary it is for a couple months, but after that?

Eh, it’s obviously not for most people with that price tag. One huge win for Apple is those that can afford it are few, and extremely dedicated. This small but dedicated user base will be the beta testers for the yet unannounced plebeian version. Either that or they find that there is no money in VR and shut the whole thing down.
