It’s not some huge controversy. Almost everyone that works with/on X11 has thrown in with weyland years ago.
I would say that is a false dichotomy. Almost everyone agrees that X11 isn't the future but the support for Wayland and the specific ways it does things, is not nearly as universal as that. It is just that the problem is huge and has already taken 15 years or so and so it looks like if we want some alternative to X11 that will be done any time soon Wayland is unfortunately the only game in town, no matter how flawed it is.
I’m not a Wayland fan by any stretch, but I’ve come to the same confusion you did. And so has almost everyone else. Which is the real point of my comment I guess.
