MacOS external display handling is just plain weird

My situation is a bit of an outlier as you said, and it works perfectly, but a lot of work went into it beforehand to look up EDID's dumped by owners of monitors and making sure that combinations wouldn't cause issues (on all three OS' as I work with all of them). It's nuts that I have to cosplay as a systems design engineer to make sure I don't face issues down the line for something that should just be plug and play.

So, one thing I recalled in Windows is that out of the box, I'm not able to set the highest refresh rate. This made me think that it has to do with the EDID. I was able to find this model's EDID on the linux hw repository here: https://github.com/linuxhw/EDID/blob/master/Digital/ASUS/AUS278F/A055F61B6915
