That's not the point of my comment, the point is that whatever hdmi is, it's got very healthy competition, so there's no real reason for anti-trust stuff

No it doesn’t, because it’s generally monitor manufacturers that add display port, and people who want to run on large tvs are SoL

That's on the tv manufacturers though, it's their choice.
