(Get the code!)
I think the limitation would be okay if the system provided a way to adjust the display properties. But there is no brightness/contrast setting, at least not in the Kubuntu system settings. If there is actually a hidden config variable somewhere, I'd be happy to set that.
That is, I use xrandr because I don't have ability to control the screen brightness in the GUI provided settings.
Note, this also applies to the settings set by nvidia-settings. So there was an expectation in the past the settings would not be changed elsewhere. I think tools like redshift, and other brightness control apps, are also expecting their settings to be retained.
