> OpenGL is effectively being deprecated by its own developers in favor of Vulkan

OpenGL is not deprecated, releases slowed down since there isn't really much new stuff to add, but 4.6 was released just last year after Vulkan.

I know it's not an official deprecation, but it sure seems like the Khronos Group sees Vulkan as OpenGL's de facto successor.

I'm not sure why you say that, their official stance has always been that OpenGL will continue to evolve as GPUs evolve and need to expose new functionality.
