The problem is that when freesync video is enabled, compositors don't know which modes are actual modes and which are a VRR video mode. There are still customers that want the vrr video mode smooth video playback, but compositors don't want this by default. I guess the alternative is to just drop this feature altogether now that compositors and media players are starting to support this properly.
