Issue as always is that vendors have zero interest in maintaining their drivers over time.
Neither releasing updates for a new OS version, nor putting them through the process to get them into windows built-in driver library.
They’ll do it grudgingly if it helps them sell more products but even that seems to be a struggle. AMD and nvidia are better than most in that regard.
