Why not? Each project is generally focusing on a different thing.

Probably a fair statement. One of RealVNC's core values is that it is
cross-platform.

Quoting the RealVNC v4 docs:
"The Authentication page allows you to configure the required level of
authentication of incoming VNC Viewer connections. At present, only two
levels are provided - no authentication or classic VNC authentication.
Some new authentication methods are in development, so expect this page to
grow."
