The physical connector is, confusingly but expectedly, the same.

HDMI is the proprietary monopoly scam. It is added to devices by the owning members of the scam. Display Port is the open source free equivalent standard that the educated consumer goes looking for.
Problem is, very few things output or input DP.
HDMI, for better or worse, seems to be ubiquitous.
A lot of laptops nowadays output video over usb c, in most cases they use DisplayPort alt mode, which as the name implies is just DisplayPort.
That doesn’t solve the issue of every x in 1 dongle only having HDMI or TVs only having HDMI inputs
I hear ya.
But for example do modern set top boxes, blue ray etc. have DP?
Give it a few years and most people won't have those devices anymore. Hell, we might already be there. If sony wasnt a founder of HDMI, TVs everywhere would probably use DP already
So here's what we do to fix that situation: don't buy those things

Tell me where I can buy a 65-80" 4K 144Hz HDR OLED with a DP port for under $2K, and I'll gladly ditch HDMI for good.
There are no TVs with displayport outside the commercial space, let alone one with your seriously specific requirements. Were you trying to trick someone into being your personal shopper?
No; I'm happy with my 65" 4K 144Hz HDR OLED with an HDMI port. Won't be replacing it until I can buy a 1000Hz panel and finally be done with motion blur for good.
Thank you, I did find myself thinking theres a reason why I have the DP cables for my PC monitors which don't seem to have an issue running high resolutions... But then I'm not running 8k on anything so I wasn't really sure about that
