I'm sorry, but you're just getting lucky with radeonsi. With Firefox, maybe the
tearing could only occur in the title bar / toolbar area.

If you can't find a satisfactory compositor setup, try TearFree. Those are your
options for avoiding tearing with any reliability.

They can't do that. They can only not explicitly prevent page flipping, but
radv already doesn't do that AFAIK. It can only make a difference in fullscreen
anyway.

Another possible reason that Vulkan might work less well is if the Vulkan
drivers use MSC targets which have already passed, and/or use the
PresentOptionAsync flag for PresentPixmap requests. That would have to be
addressed in the Vulkan drivers or possibly the applications themselves; the
Xorg driver is just doing what it's asked.
