I wish HDMI would die. DisplayPort is the superior standard. HDMI is useless if GPU manufacturers are not allowed to release open source drivers for it.

If they could add a way for HDMI data signals to go over displayport this could actually happen. Without them the TV world will never change and HDMI will continue to exist. I don't imagine there's much of a technical reason for eARC & CEC being HDMI only features

This exists. In fact, Intel GPUs do not actually support HDMI, they convert to DisplayPort in GPU.
