1. A method for unlinking virtual objects in a 3D artificial reality environment, wherein the 3D artificial reality environment orchestrates interactions between a plurality of virtual objects, the method comprising:
receiving a selection of one or more extraction virtual objects from within a collection augment that is a collection of multiple virtual objects including the one or more extraction virtual objects;
when a removal control has been activated, causing a version of the one or more extraction virtual objects to be in the 3D artificial reality environment while removing the one or more extraction virtual objects from the collection augment; and
when no removal control has been activated, causing the version of the one or more extraction virtual objects to be in the 3D artificial reality environment while keeping another version of the one or more extraction virtual objects in the collection augment.
