Windows display hotplugging is pretty dire. I'm sure there's a good explanation (x86 legacy?) but Windows (Win11, current patch, Thinkpad T14) seemingly having a stroke any time I plug in a new display then having to do the "Advanced Display Settings" rigamarole, is always ugly and frustrating.

I have read in a thread about display ID and CEC that some display manufacturers burnt the same "unique" identity into their monitors. Should this be true, it would admit into the room at least one other player in this space who may be responsible for bad behaviour recognising and dealing with plug-unplug and other issues: If they can mis-understand the spec this badly, imagine what else they got wrong?
