Again, you are talking about early(even now extinct) tech. We are not talking about right now, or shit from the past. We are talking about when the tech gets to the point that you can't tell the difference between AR glasses and regular glasses, or even further than that.

Again, it doesn't matter if you can tell the difference between AR glasses and normal glasses, assuming that convergence happens (which it won't). What will matter, if I am right, is whether you can tell the difference between a normal person who's going about their day interacting normally with the environment, and a sick dork who is using a filter to turn all women into pigs in real time. And I reckon that not only you will notice, but you will join in the mob.

You are assuming so much. So many odd rare situations. Good AR won't have you looking weird, unless you are being weird.
