Not per se. Video cards continue to get better by the year. Image quality, speed, reliability, features and drivers continue to get better for the most part (there's always an exception or two). Most computers run Windows but that doesn't stop computer and chip companies from trying to make a product that runs it better than the competition's offerings.
However, I do see your point. With DirectX being the defacto standard, there's one less area of competition and thus, less innovation so having DirectX alone might not be the best thing to happen but not from a hardware standpoint.
