It ain't luck: people like me were buying nvidia cards to run OpenGL on linux decades ago and nvidia was already coming to my supercomputer center to sell us on early GPUs in ~2007. They are the only company that took high performance GPUs seriously for a long time. Intel didn't do all the things nvidia did.
