Thats what VRR is for
gpt
Respectfully, no it's not.

Screen *tearing* is when your FPS surpasses your refresh rate causing parts of more than one frame to be displayed during one refresh cycle; vsync is essentially a frame cap which kicks in once the refresh rate is reached to prevent this.

VRR/Freesync/Gsync is for when your FPS drops *below* the screens refresh rate (microstutter/blur) and tells your monitor to adjust the refresh rate accordingly (up or down within the refresh rate range) in real-time.

Edit: To clarify, I'm not advocating vsync on, in general it should be off unless you're particularly sensitive to tearing, just that VRR does not prevent screen tearing.

Edit 2: If you disagree, it's simple to verify. Turn on your available VRR without a frame cap or vsync on. Load up a game where the FPS will exceed your refresh. Look at the evident tearing. Turn on vsync or a frame cap (2-3fps below your refresh rate), watch the tearing disappear.
