no, hardware support for texture compression and hardware support for
transform and lighting are 2 entirely separate pieces of silicon.

they have never been co-joined.

DX 6 supported texure compression, TnL wasnt supported until DX 7.

Actually they do:

Well, they refer to DX6 hardware texture compression, which (as far as I
know), requires a hardware T&L rendering device.
