But i want the tearing, or at least i prefer it to the latency that compositors impose! This is why compositors must not be forced and instead be a user option.

But i want the tearing, or at least i prefer it to the latency that compositors impose! This is why compositors must not be forced and instead be a user option. I do not see why i have to suffer a subpar computing experience because of some clueless users. I even force vsync off system-wide where possible (that is in Windows, in Linux i haven't seen such an option and even in Windows DWM ignores the setting).
