I did a white, red, green screen test to check for dead pixels, none on either panel. Did a full black screen in a pitch dark room and didn't notice any glaring light bleed one way or the other for either panel. Colors both look vibrant and bright compared to each other on a 4K video I shot with my iPhone12 Pro. There did seem like there was some resolution issues on the BOE where the image got blurry at some parts, but when I paused the video to really compare to the LG, I couldn't find it or it was just my eyes deceiving me. Did a very, very small gaming sample on both monitors and did not notice anything extremely different between the two. At this price, unless you find something glaringly wrong with the monitor, I think both panels are pretty decent at this price.
Oh, I also compared the LG side by side to the Dell S2721DGF as I bought that monitor a few weeks ago. The Dell is more vibrant in color, but I don't think the Dell is $125 better than the HP. I wouldn't pay the asking price for the HP now, but at $175, it's a no brainer. Take all this with a grain of salt as this is purely my experience with the three monitors in front of me and your experience may be different.

Should I just return it? Is the difference between panels that abysmal?

Overall impression, great panel/value for the money even with the BOE panel. Had thought about returning it since I did not get the LG panel but keeping it now after testing.

Yeah. I get this issue on my work laptop. the problem is the usb c port has a limitation on resolution support. if you plug two 1080p monitors, it works. but if one of them is 1440p, it will downgrade the resolution to 1080p or not shown anything at all on one monitor. The work around is what you did by plugging a monitor directly to the laptop and leaving the other display on the usb c hub. I hate these new usb c hubs because the connection isn't stable like the proprietary hub/ports that were used by Dell and Lenovo years ago. The usb c is a great tech to be made as a display connection but it's limited because it also shares the usb bandwidth when using peripherals and flash drives.
