I think to the Wayland folks, anything other than using Windows is an exotic use case. They’re not entirely wrong, but if we wanted to use Windows, we … would be using Windows. The great thing about Linux was that we could do more than Windows or macOS permitted.

Weird take. Windows and macOS both let you do things Wayland doesn't currently have widely adopted protocols for. Only thing Xorg can do that any of the others can't is let a client application manage windows, and it's only macOS that really doesn't like that.
