I'm not sure that this would work. As Cordell pointed out many users have
multiple different GPUs installed in their system. This won't be as much of a
problem in the enterprise space where graphics aren't really a thing but many
systems are built with APUs (combined CPU+GPU) packages and then they install a
DGPU like a Radeon 7900 XT. How would that work with your alternative's ligic?
You would need two to be active at once.

I agree, that you should roll everything forward to 5.7 and in the back of your
mind consider how to maintain compatibility when rocm 6 rolls out. It is
supposed to be a break API release.
