My criticism of Wayland has always been that they dropped a spec, forgot to make an actual server, and now every window manager needs to implement support for various extensions separately. It's a fine design if you assume everyone only uses Gnome, but...
It's not just throwing away a decade's worth of work on X, it's making everyone redo that work per display manager (thankfully wlroots exists as a kind of Wayland shared library).
