DEs and WMs are orthogonal to this issue. They exist because people love that. I see no much love for having multiple display servers even from KDE/Gnome.
The topic we're discussing, explicit sync, was actually requested not just by NVIDIA (but they did it first), but by AMD and Intel because it's how the graphics pipeline has worked for over a decade now in Windows, D3D12 and Vulkan. I mean it's a really good change for the entire Linux graphics stack and NVIDIA is a "bad guy"? Whoa.
You, sir, are showing the depths of rabid fanboyism, or should I say blind zealotry multiplied by hatred and zero understanding of Wayland development and implementation. Yeah, NVIDIA pushed EGLStreams for a time, only AFAIK Mutter gave in, others did not, the whole ordeal has long blown over. NVIDIA now supports GBM natively. That whole situation was far outside the scope and reach of the Wayland project.
Ah, NVIDIA is guilty. Maybe you could have put this word in front of your message, so that I'd instantly understood you had nothing but hatred and conspiracy theories for Wayland (implementations) being so fragmented and woefully incomplete. Yeah, it's an NVIDIA's fault. Goodbye.
