Currently High Sierra does ship with both the old OpenGL Quartz compositor and the new Metal V2 Compositors.
Currently older Macbooks with the Intel iGPU don't support the Metal API as they can't even use all the basic Metal API calls in release V1.0. The older Macbook's are too old: This is actually completely correct, Apple has rewritten most/all of the GUI, The Quartz 3D Compositor and CoreAnimation in Metal (Basically the whole desktop is now accelerated by Metal and this will only grow in time). You are missing very important details that dismiss almost everything you claimed as it was formulated by a collection of misinformation from people parroting unfounded conclusions based off of other parroters. What you wrote here is a decent synopsis with the information you been reading by others in general as it's trendy and popular to hate everything Apple does without gathering any real research/evidence. Another opinion is dropping opengl/cl support has nothing to do with performance or stability or engineering effort and purely about is profit. They literally DO have the capability to render "dark" mode on anything they choose, they have the source code after all. My opinion is Apples doing to force hardware upgrades and propagate #MeTooGFXLibrary. "That is until some genius on github decides to create an opengl wrapper that interrupts metal calls.
