I feel like this is short changing X. I have seen it as a good local solution over 20 years or so. Did you ever see those 90s commercial Unix workstations? Like from SGI? How about a Nokia N900? X on a smartphone. It ran pretty well. Today's smartphone hardware would run circles around that thing so I can only assume if somebody ported X to those it would also do fine. I feel like people see things they don't like or imperfections and bash the whole thing as useless. X had a lot of mileage. I use it frequently today and don't see a lot of problems.
