Honestly yeah
MS should get all the flack (which is mostly deserved) of this
Manufacturer does whatever crap they want with "it works" and then MS gets the complaints
A driver should only be that. A driver

I don't see why we can't blame both here? And I'm a big LG user, I'm writing this comment via a LG monitor, our main TV is LG, dishwasher and clotheswasher is also LG. But still, that Microsofts enables this behavior should rightly put them at the stake for this, and also LG should get flack too, just because something is possible doesn't mean you have to automatically go that route.
well you can plug the same monitor into a mac and not have this issue.
I don't use it with a Mac, and I already don't have that issue :) Kind of besides the point, LG should still get flack for it, even if it doesn't happen for me on the platform I use.
We can
I don't think "should" is the best word here, I mean it more like "They will (eventually)"
But what they should/are aware of (and work against) is shenanigans by the HW vendors

I still remember the massive amounts of crapware installed with video cards, printers (hello, HP), and just about anything where the manufacturer can squeeze some money from.
This was always one of my biggest pet peeves on Windows. A bunch of junk running in the system tray just for basic hardware functionality.

What does a monitor even need a driver for? I presume if you plug one of these into a Mac or a Linux box it’s still going to function.
