You are not wrong about your analysis of AMD's proprietary driver. The nVidia one is quote good and what I run now, their lack of support for virtualization in the consumer sector though is very annoying.

Linux is about open source, because of various reasons. It's not designed to be friendly towards proprietary applications or drivers, but firmware is usually OK.
At least in the recent decade or so more moderate voices have become louder in the Linux echo system and we can now typically run our videocards and other hardware at full speed with the manufacturer supported code!
