    Fair enough. The displayport has limited use though, given how there aren’t many (any?) large 4k120hz televisions with displayport. And let me be clear, that’s no dig against displayport (which is the better standard). As far as I know, certain shady license deals keep hdmi artificially ubiquitous on televisions.

      That same shadiness is why AMD GPUs can’t directly support HDMI 2.1 on Linux. But there are workarounds like DP to HDMI converters or using 4:2:0 which is tolerable for non-HDR gaming at least (not so much general PC use).
