You're completely missing the point, aren't you?
You argued that this isn't the xkcd situation.... and proceeded to literally describe "Situation: There are now 15 standards". But sure, you don't care because "transpilers exist". I wish people cared.
> WebGPU does not exist solely because Apple didn't like Vulkan.
Apple released first version Metal before Vulkan was even a thing on anyone's radar:
- Metal release date: June 2014.
- The Khronos Group began a project to create a next generation graphics API in July 2014
But sure, "Apple doesn't like Vulkan".
And the whole "WebGPU does not exist solely because Apple didn't like Vulkan" is a sentence that has literally zero sense. Pre-WebGPU prototype was literaly proposed as a joint effort by Apple and Mozilla, and it was Apple's idea to create a working group to work on the new graphics API.
