I imagine it's hard to debug and hard to ensure it's consistent across machines due to different environments?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding but for clarification, the fact they're drawn by the client actually means they can always be the same across different environments. This is in opposition to server-side decorations which are drawn by the desktop environment and should match the environment as a result. That said, server-side decorations are largely much less extensible than client side ones.

It's a bad thing that they're always the same, I don't like having window borders or buttons and use a keyboard based hyprland setup, this is just a bunch of wasted space for me

Well, you can disable window controls in gnome and KDE afaik if you want. Then you'll only have the various app-specific buttons that are necessary for functionality.

If you're looking for every app to have a vim-like interface or something, well, that seems a bit unrelated to CSDs.

Ah that makes more sense!
