I sympathize for sure. I wished for support on an eGPU for my 16. Where I’m having doubts is due to the serious lack of drivers back when NVIDIA was supported. But it’s always possible something does get supported. If it does I still think it’s the last.The incentive that you speak of are the current owners of MacPro Machines who spent tens of thousands of dollars on an upgradable machine. Apple would upset many by not providing a simple kext to their whale customers
According to apple there are further intel machines that apple will be continuing manufacturing. Your statement is almost correct; Navi 5000 series card is the last card that has been supported *so far*
Apple is unable to attain Navi 5### cards because they are no longer produced due to manufacturing capacity of TSMC 7nm
There are kexts literally named Navi6000 in beta versions of MacOS - those kexts are made by apple
None of this means they will be supported, but surely you can see the points above as to why so many disagree with you
