Have you ever used a macbook trackpad? The click is just a fancy rumble pack. We can use electricity to make glass opaque. If the only thing stopping a person from living in a VR pod is haptic feedback, it'll be solved in a fortnight.
Then why hasn't it been solved? It's been nearly a decade since the oculus sdk came out.
And if you think the max track pad haptics are indistinguishable from a real button click, you're... Not very perceptive imo. Don't mean that as an attack. Just open your mind to the idea that other people can def tell the difference.
