Even if the frantic handshaking is somewhat necessary, I don't think it's justified that it takes over 1 millisecond, let along multiple seconds with monitors turning on and off in the meantime. Seems like shoddy work on every end.

Drivers, kernel, privilege levels, userspace, whatever. But I believe if we were to rewrite everything from scratch without the 90s technical debt and careful planning beforehand it would be easy to have a dynamic monitor connecting algorithm which doesn't suck like that.
