Hey there, thanks for the comprehensive reply, I learned a lot. Also, your blog is fantastic, I'm always happy when there's a new post =)
Question about the last point: I feel like in SDR mode, the OLED is pushing brighter images. I almost feel like it's underselling the capabilities at 270, but does so to give pixels a rest every now and then, in the hope that the bright spots don't stay stationary on the screen. It's a wild guess, I have no idea.
I love how everyone understands the issue wrong. It's not about being on Windows or Linux. It's about the ecosystem that is common place and people are used to on Windows or Linux. On windows it's accepted that every stupid anticheat can drop its filthy paws into ring 0 and normies don't mind. Linux has a fostered a less clueless community, but ultimately it's a reminder to keep vigilant and strive for pure and well documented open source with the correct permissions.
BSODs won't come from userspace software
