Of course it means that. Weston developers are core developers of the Wayland protocol, as are developers of other compositors. Also, not only weston but wlroots also NACK'd it (for the same reason). If compositors refuse to implement a protocol then there's no point to merging such a protocol.
Also to be clear, it was blocked from being added to xdg- namespace, and was thus moved to ext- namespace where it can still be worked on.
