Alex Deucher:

The HDMI Forum has rejected our proposal unfortunately. At this time an open source HDMI 2.1 implementation is not possible without running afoul of the HDMI Forum requirements.

And game consoles. And basically anything that's not a PC and a monitor.

It's not just limited to PC's. USB C has a DisplayPort alternate mode and many phones and tablets support it now. I'm rather surprised manufacturers haven't started putting USB C ports on TV's for video input yet.

Ah, i forgot some phones support straight displayport over usb. Still, wired display out on a phone isn't exactly a common use case.
