Applications that don't present at a predictable rate (ie. not games)

Why videos (in video players like vlc & mpv) wouldn't have predictable rate?
Them being able to use VRR to get refresh rate that exactly matches the
video's frame rate (24, 25, 30, 50 etc), or some multiple of it, should
look much better than player being forced to interpolate to something
else...
