The golden question is if they would be allowed on an actual macOS image without hacks, Hackintoshes don't count.

What? The page linked has drivers for macOS. They work on a hackintosh and on any regular Mac. Nvidia wouldn’t release official drivers that only work on a hackintosh.

Today, the OP question was about a future Mac Pro.

They're meant for the older Mac Pros that could still have normal Nvidia GPUs in them. They just happen to work perfectly fine in Hackintoshes.

That was my point, we are playing "what if" here regarding future Mac Pros.

Given the move away from OpenGL/OpenCL into Metal, I don't have big hopes for future models.
