      I use Display Port on my main PC monitor. Recently I added a secondary screen, a bigger TV screen, just to watch films on it. Neither I have a second Display Port on my GPU, nor have the TV any. So we are stuck with HDMI to a degree.

      Yes but if a GPU has DP it probably comes with HDMI, meaning they can still get your money*.

      Given the issues we have with dport right now, I have to say that reason is masochism and a hatred of features.
