> In fact my own 15" MBP late 2013 has a GFX750, which is no longer supported according to Apple Support [1]

That support article doesn't mention the GFX 750 and I can't find any record of Apple selling a MBP with a GFX 750...

Edit:

I believe what you meant to say is you have a "NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB of GDDR5 memory and automatic graphics switching" [0] which it appears does not support metal.

Metal's supported on that card. Works on a GT650M too, from a 2012 rMBP.

You're correct about the card, sorry about that. Got confused I suppose. Indeed I meant to say I have the GT 750.

I should have added this in my edit but I'll put it here:

I stand corrected. I DO think it's wrong for Apple to drop support for something they shipped, especially since it's just over 4 years old. I thought this issue was limited to people who had Mac Pro's or Hackintosh's and put an unsupported card in it. I'll admit I've only used 13" MBP's for the last 10+ years until my most recent MBP and so dedicated graphic cards wasn't in my wheelhouse. I honestly thought they stopped ALL Nvidia cards back in 2009ish.
