I could see that handling a wider FOV nicely.

Wider FOV without the need to drastically increase the horizontal pixel count. Sounds good to me but I can imagine the IL-2 devs shaking their heads sadly and opening up a bottle of Vodka every time they see news like this.

Lol yeah, but if this is indeed in the works for a high end PC VR , CV2, then it will still be a ways off I think.
