I tend to agree that since CUDA needs the linux version of libcuda that only come with the nvidia driver, i am a bit unsure if it would be a "default wine" thing. A regular windows user do not install (nv)CUDA.dll libraries unless they use an NVIDIA adapter afaik.
I have been working on improving CUDA support for wine here: https://github.com/SveSop/nvcuda/tree/devel , but i am unable to crack compatibility with CUDA SDK 11.6 and newer i am afraid.

I'd like suggesting to merge the 17 patches from wine-staging/patches/nvcuda-CUDA_Support patches into upstream wine
In my opinion, CUDA for Wine would make the most sense as some kind of downloadable add-on (maybe something akin to Wine Mono). But I never use CUDA, so it would be up to someone else to make that happen.

[1] seems to suggest that this is not possible because cuda is a "low-level library", and because of that "...You cant install some windows driver in wine and expect this to work. ...".
Therefore, adding the nvcuda patches in upstream wine seems to be the proper approach.
