That's a little confusing to me given that there has been a good bit
of movement towards shipping WebVR in release versions of browsers.

Shipping things to the release channel (as opposed to just users on
nightly/beta channels or users who turn on experimental features)
means that Web content could start depending on the features at any
time, which means we might be stuck with them in their current form.

That suggests (if my understanding of the state of shipping to
release users is correct) that it's likely time for the
standardization process to also admit that it's no longer just
experimenting, but actually shipping real stuff.
