I believe he means unofficial as in not provided by Microsoft. Microsoft works to make sure Direct3D works and I imagine they have lots of tests and compatibility suites there. I'm guessing they don't have any tests or standards were requirements around Vulcan. |

Microsoft is only middle-man, the drivers are written by GPU vendors in the first place. Why should I prefer middle-man to the original source?
Historically, the drivers provided by Microsoft via Windows Update were worse (older) than those provided by GPU vendors directly.

So do Khronos group and GPU vendors for Vulkan.
