Which came first, the chicken or the egg?

The egg. Ask any geneticist.

You blather on about the innovations themselves, but never address the original question - why were the innovations made?

Why? Why is anything done by a company? Because they think it will give them an edge over the competition.

Some would contend that the demands of increasingly sophisticated software dictated the need for these innovations.

Yes, but ignorance is not a point of view.

PC 3d cards came about because it became practical to put 3d rasterisation into hardware. Prior to that, cards had 2d acceleration functions - blitting being the most obvious.

All of the rest of the features were added for exactly the same reasons. Because it was practical and because some other company would do it if yours did not. Same reason for the PSX having 3d hardware.

Hardware T&L is obvious and is just following SGI's example. Vertex and pixel shaders are nice - and quite a welcome departure from the let's-clone-SGI attitude of the late 90s - but the prior art was there. Ever hear of the PixelPlanes architecture? It's covered in Foley and van Dam...

Others, like yourself, ignorantly dismiss this without consideration.

Software *always* lags behind hardware. There's simply no way to write code to take advantage of something that does not exist. Or would you actually try to claim that people were writing pixel shaders on paper waiting for someone to implement them in hardware? That must be why glQuake makes full use of a GeForce4...
