You know nothing.

Skia is definitely not a good example at all. Skia started as a CPU renderer, and added GPU rendering later, which heavily relies on caching. Vello, for example, takes a completely different approach compared to Skia.

NV path rendering is a joke. nVidia though that ALL graphics would be rendered on GPU within 2 years after making the presentation, and it took 2 decades and 2D CPU renderers still shine.

I believe Skia's new Graphite architecture is much more similar to Vello

Right. The question is does Skia grows its broad and useful toolkit with an eye toward further GPU optimization? Or does Vello (broadened and perhaps burdened by Rust and the shader-obsessive crowd) grow a broad and useful API?

There's also the issue of just how many billions of line segments you really need to draw every 1/120th of a second at 8K resolution, but I'll leave those discussions to dark-gray Discord forums rendered by Skia in a browser.
