Some generic term doesn't explain anything, it barely makes a
statement.

You're missing the point. If the bridge has a different tolerance
range to DSI timings for example, then you're screwed, even though the
timings work in RGB.

You're the one with the panel, the issue and apparently a solution,
and the whole problem we're having is because I don't have any idea on
what that issue is precisely, and neither why your solution makes sense.

I'm not sure I'm the best to write a comment in that situation.
