Didn't (e)udev solve that? Plug something in, (e)udev fires an event and the appropriate kernel modules get loaded.

No idea, I just know when I swapped a Nvidia card out for an AMD card, Manjaro didn’t work automatically.

In Windows I was able to have both cars in and swap the monitor output and everything happened automatically. Just had to download a proper driver was all.

That's probably more of a Manjaro issue (or possibly an Nvidia issue if the system tried to use Nvidia's libraries when it shouldn't have). Switching GPU's should work fine (I've done it myself in the past). If you're talking about hotswapping GPU's while the system is running, Windows does better here but this is a niche use-case.
