Selecting text with left clicks and pasting it with a middle click is a major feature of X11 IMHO. As a developer I copy and paste text all the time usually the X11 way, because if I select it's already in the clipboard and Ctrl-C is useless. I'm using a laptop with touchpad so I don't have to move my hands away from the keyboard. If I had to use a mouse then maybe I'd use Ctrl-C/V.
I also Ctrl-C/Ctrl-V files between directories in the file browser but not every week. I can also drag and drop them (move or copy). Everything other use of the clipboard happens less than once per month.
If left click / middle click doesn't work between all Wayland applications I can wait until all toolkits support it or X11 is removed from Linux.
