Apple did recently approve drivers for both nvidia and amd, but not for gaming purposes.

Apple supported OpenGL plenty, just that the world moved. Apple created metal, shortly after Vulkan was created.

"They could support it if they wanted to" is almost a tautology. Of course they could. But then they have to support another thing. They are on the hook when something goes wrong.

What they approved was very limited, unofficial 3rd party drivers with very limited application.

It's the first positive sign in a decade but also almost entirely unrelated to what people would consider supporting AMD and Nvidia cards.
