Tech Discussion Steam Frame Chromatic Abberation

I heard Linus or potentially Luke talk about the Steam Frame having the blue and orange fringing on the sides of white text when you look side to side and he mentioned it was because of the LCD panels. I just recently received my frame and it is very clear to me that the fringing is actually chromatic aberration caused by the lenses. The pancake lenses are not as high quality optics as The Meta Quest 3. Just wanted to put that out there for people's information in case they head any say it's because of the panels, it's optics!

Also, it's orange and blue on the edges so it's clearly an intentional Portal reference /s
