I’m continually sad that Skia is killing all other vector graphics libraries, given how poor its documentation is, how difficult it is to build, etc. :( Especially since Microsoft is effectively deemphasizing D2D (which is excellent). Cairo needs more investment.
“Defeat the whole purpose” is a bit extreme. It’d create some potential sources of incompatibility. Enough to matter? I’m a lot less sure. Vector graphics libraries are reasonably comparable in output.

(Note that Skia already does certain things differently on different platforms, including using DirectWrite on Windows.)

Didn’t realize that. Do you know if there was ever attempt to have a D2D (or CG) backend to Skia?
