I strongly disagree. Wayland makes the wrong abstractions and does not offer vital functionality usually needed on a Desktop system. As a result every Toolkit/Compositor has to implement that additional functionality itself and most of the time it is incompatible to the competitor for no apparent reason. X might be old and has accumulated a lot of cruft over time (which is excusable for software that is almost 40 years in use) but is genuinely superior at the design level.
As an exercise I recommend to write a native universal applicable Wayland application that takes screenshots.
