Hasn't TDM been mostly or entirely supplanted by sddm?

sddm was the other display manager installed.
I found instructions at https://linuxhint.com/change-display-manager-debian-linux/ using the command to configure sddm, allowed me to select between it and tdm-trinity as the display manager. Upon a reboot afterwards (both systems), the Trinity Display Manager now successfully comes up.
The binutils issue remains, if I attempt to install it along with one missing dependency through the command line, it still wants to remove binutils-common as well as the numerous Trinity packages.
