- For vendors with multiple drivers, consistently use "older hardware -> newer hardware" ordering - By luck of alphabetical order, AMD (r600, radeonsi), Arm (lima, panfrost), Intel OpenGL (crocus, iris), and Nvidia (nv50, nvc0) were already ordered this way, but not Broadcom (v3d, vc4) and Intel Vulkan (anv, hasvk). - Order Translation before Software - Translation layers are much more likely to be intentionally used (e.g. modern Nvidia defaults to using Zink on NVK instead of the old nvc0 driver), while software drivers are almost always only used for testing or a fallback in case of broken hardware acceleration. - Remove square brackets around Translation and Software - I've been looking at this for a while, and it just feels very unnatural. If these truly need more differentiation, it should probably be done a different way, but as it stands now, the brackets feel like a downgrade.

Also, for making the table header always visible, it can be done much simpler than the recent change, and IMHO it feels much nicer to use as well, since it avoid the "scroll-within-a-scroll": Screen.Recording.2026-07-04.at.4.56.59.PM.movIt's as simple as setting |

For the square brackets, it's hard to explain the change beyond "feels wrong", but unfortunately that's often the nature of UI/UX, where it's often east to tell that something feels wrong, but not easy to tell/explain why.
