It’s always funny to see that drivers and operating systems are littered with workarounds for (in my eyes) shoddy bugs in downstream applications.

When hardware meet firmware, especially as complex as a GPU, there will always be unpredictable bugs.
Mix that with every company that uses your driver differently, and computer hardware variation, you can’t cover all edge cases.
