More similar to DX12 than it is to Vulkan?

Because all three are APIs which try to provide a lot more control over the GPU to game developers. And I wouldn't know of any other similarities that DX12 and Metal share...

Metal is inferior to Vulkan.

Metal is and will always be exclusive to apple platforms.
