I'm unable to follow this strange evolution.
I did have a bit of mistrust in 3D (although with less extreme feelings
than yours), and especially based on cheezy and naive use in many films...
That was till we did an ambisonics recording and playback experiment,
also comparing other 2-dimensional recording configurations. You should
really try it!
Also 3D meaning more than 2 channels positioned in space has lots of
creative potential (i.e. not using it to reproduce a recorded sonic
space, but creating it from zero)

We all have 2 ears and 1 brain that has to do a lot of
work, regarding
to information from the sense organs. The brain needs to do math because
usually the left and right ear are not equal, so even when wearing a
head phone the brain needs the context of the situation and the perfect
natural loudness etc. for this context.
All thoughts about doing 3D are useless until we aren't able to connect
electrodes directly to our brains and to have a rimming regarding to our
brains.
As long as Cochlear implant isn't good, any try to do 3D mixing is
laughable, resp. a pain, just try to watch AND hear a modern film, it's
a torture.
There are some good mixes for stereo and mono, but at least I never
heard a valid mix with more but one ore two channels.
