This ship has sailed for better or worse. The people who take these decisions don't hang out in forums to listen to every complaint and gripe. They work for the main corporations and foundations steering Linux development and they have decided that Wayland is the future, even if the transition is going to be ugly. Linux is no longer the "community" OS that it once was. In a way it has gone more mainstream than even MacOS or Windows, and that means it will cater to the larger market forces than the "community's" wants.
