It really is better though. Keeps old apps working. Allows new apps to target the superior system directly.

Don't kid yourself about "superior" - only Wayland developers and fanboys care about the simplicity or cleanliness of Wayland's implementation. Wayland's killer feature for an app developer is "vertical sync"? The majority of new apps will just use a web interface or stick to X11 because it runs on the old Xorg and the new Wayland shim.

As a user and programmer, I care about the implementation of the software I use. I might want to hack on it someday.
