Your not forced to do anything your forgetting g-sync/adaptive sync/freesync are not a requirement they are an optional technology at present. Your nvidia gpu would work perfectly with a non gsync monitor but if you decide you want to use the new technology you have the choice to buy a gsync one or swap gpu's and buy a freesync one.
That is the overriding thing people are overlooking and getting caught up in the nvidia should or shouldn't. It's not a prerequisite to owning an nvidia gpu it's an OPTIONAL extra.
Being a pre existing NVidia owner I think it is highly unfair that I can not take advantage of the cheaper Freesync monitors because I am forced to use G-Sync to get the same thing. This is far worse than anything Microsoft did with their browser as I could change that with a simple download and install.
