I much prefer turning shadows off than have them do something crazy. Graphics don’t need to be awesome just consistent. Minecraft is in many ways worse than Daggerfall, but you quickly get used to the world. Skyrim is fine for a more realistic world even without mods, until a texture messes up and looks crazy. That’s the moment when you go from playing at game to looking at a screen.
IMO Cyberpunk would be strictly better off with fewer effects and worst textures in exchange for fewer glitches. Voluntarily selecting more glitches please aka DLSS is just a terrible trade off from my perspective.
It's such a subjective evaluation. I was plenty immersed in Elder Scrolls Daggerfall, despite constantly falling through the floor. I was plenty immersed with Cyberpunk 2077, despite minor car accidents rocketing me to the moon.

Which is a problem that DLSS helps solve, by improving FPS while minimizing the sacrifice to quality. I'm not sure what's the problem? If a few wonky shadows or other minor graphical glitches ruin the immersion for you, it sounds like you've set the bar too high and have unrealistic expectations.
