Yup. I do love my ProDisplay XDR from a photography perspective, but I miss my dual LG monitors - and there's a little Stockholm syndrome, as Apple broke DSC 1.4 in order to make the ProDisplay work - previously, in Catalina, I could drive the 2 27GN950-Bs in 4K HDR @ 144Hz, and after, could not (this was reported hundreds of times, across many users, monitors, and GPUs). After Catalina, and at least through Monterey, I could only get HDR@60, SDR@95 with DSC 1.4. Ironically, telling the monitors to only advertise DSC 1.2 support got me better results.

At the time, people were wondering how Apple was able to drive the ProDisplay given bandwidth constraints. The answer was "by breaking DSC 1.4 for everybody else".

But to your point, agreed. Whether coding, or otherwise, 144Hz was just buttery smooth and made 60Hz very noticeable.
