4K 120Hz is a really common TV input and even this is not possible in HDMI 2.0 without 4:2:0 chroma subsampling which is visually lossy especially in desktop usage.

I'd wager that people who have linux and are plugging in TVs to run at 4k 120 are probably also not significantly in the majority.

i mean, sure, do it, we deserve to have feature parity with windows, but its not a problem that is affecting the masses.
