I'm not asking about an unknowable future state, I'm asking about the
situation right now and for the foreseeable future (using the term
foreseeable precisely).

Do you disagree with any of my premises, or the conclusion that a DRM
recommendation by the W3C is in practice incompatible with any FOSS
license?

Please forgive me if I seem harsh on this issue, but it feels to me
(subjective language, I know) as though you are avoiding a direct answer
to my question by inviting me to hope that all content providers follow
the lead of a subset of the music industry, at some unspecified time in
the future.
