If the hardware specs support it, I want to be able to do it. End of fuckin story. If they sell me a thing I don’t want to be told how I cannot use it. It’s not about what you think I need it for and it’s that exact attitude that allows this shit to exist.
No, what allows this to exist is consumer complacency. If people refused to buy HDMI devices, they couldn’t sell them, and they’d stop making them. And then just everyone would use DisplayPort, which is the objectively superior standard anyway.

How many TVs these days have DisplayPort? Should steam machine owners only play on monitors?
Depends on how you define a TV. But not many. For the reasons I stipulated in the comment you replied to.
That’s really cool but what about supporting hardware that people already own is bad?
Who said it was bad?
