Passthrough Mode with Guardian Turned Off

Like many developers, using the guardian can be cumbersome when switching between my desk and headset, so i utilize the option that lets you turn the guardian off. However, that seems to disable the passthrough mode, either double tap or the passthrough environment. Passthrough should be able to be turned on with the guardian turned off, because then instead of being totally blind, theres almost a middle-ground.

I feel the guardian is forced on us a little too hard. Maybe ease off and let us be free and use the device as we wish. Artificial limitations are infuriating especially when they are completely counterintuitive to safety like this.

This is important, we should be able to use the pasthrough with dev settings enabled.

I want to use this so I can walk around my house without having to set up that big of a guardian. Just turn on the passthrough environment and walk around with Youtube in front of me. I definitely want to see this added!

Bump! The headset would be safer without an all-or-nothing approach.

Just discovered this myself now and the original poster is spot on with that request. From a developer perspective being able to turn off the guardian, but maintain double tap passthrough functionality would be more sensible than the current situation.
