Collab with SEUS or NVIDIA for Java-native RTX

Seeing how bedrock got native RTX while having lower performance than Java, and Java already has groundbreaking shaders, Imagine the limits that can be pushed when NVIDIA or the SEUS devs collaborated with Mojang to make a native Java supported shader.

OpenGL doesn't support hardware-accelerated RT, so they would need to rewrite the whole rendering engine and use Vulkan or something.

Which means they'll need to sacrifice a major part of the modding community, and I don't think Mojang would ever want to do that. (unless they also collaborate with sp614x to remake Optifine)
