IMO yes.

you are doing it per-device here, I'm not sure what you mean with the
question, sorry.

that's a different error message, caused when the server-internal EQ
overflows. and the reason for the message is because the backtrace that X
prints then shows the input code as culprit, when the real issue is 5-6
stack frames up the stack. this wouldn't be necessary here, though we could
theoretically run into the same issue: if rendering delays reading from the
input fds for too long, we can trigger SYN_DROPPED.
