EDID & DDC are mere conveniences unnecessary to the function of the device. I
really couldn't care less whether EDID/DDC exists, much less works. What
matters (works just fine) from a display, which may have been manufactured
before the invention of DDC or EDID, is its output qualities. Whatever it
takes to get there is of no import to a user, though configuring to get there
without heroics (e.g. via an interactive configurator like SCD) is definitely
a plus.
