Small miracle with MSI Unify Z490i and onboard TB3 video?

MSI Unify Z490i with a disabled dGPU (via boot args). Took me a while to figure out the frame buffer patch to get HDMI working off the iGPU motherboard output.

Out of curiosity, I tried connecting up a Thunderbolt Display to the TB3 port and low and behold: IT WORKS! I'm not sure if it was the frame buffer changes or something in the latest OS but it's working just as in Windows.

Connection shows as Thunderbolt/Displayport with Intel UHD Graphics 630 but the Thunderbolt/USB4 info shows as no drivers. The only other change was an update to OC 0.6.8.

Did I miss the memo and TB3 video now works?!
