Then what is your concern? That the link-bpc property does not
consider DSC and dithering? Two things which the max-bpc property
also does not consider?
Please clearly state where your problem with this property is (and
not with how your understanding of the Weston MR uses it) so that
I can make forward progress here. If all you want is a clearer
description of the property in the comment that accompanies it,
then I can do that, and I said I agree with this point. But you
seem to be arguing from a position of not wanting the property to
exist at all, which is not something I can address. Userspace needs
a way to close the feedback loop here, or it won't be able to make
the right content-specific trade-offs.
Kind regards,
