Because, frankly systemd + gnome + wayland actually work well together.
I'm not a Unix grey beard, but I've been using Linux for a while (6 years at this point). I have literally never had a problem that was related to systemd. So all the anti-systemd rhetoric just doesn't seem to have much merit to me.
Gnome is frankly the most polished DE on Linux. I've used many DEs and have run DWM and Sway setups. They all have their pros and cons, but Gnome is fine in my experience. In fact, Gnome is the most the most like a Window Manger of all the DEs. You can pretty easily get a keyboard only setup with Gnome.
I've been on Fedora for the last 2 years and Wayland has also been fine. Stuff like screen sharing was annoying at first, but I can't even remember the last time I noticed I was on wayland.
So call me a Red Hat Shill or whatever, but I just don't see what the hate is all about with systemd/Gnome/Wayland.

Before I abandoned Manjaro for macOS (mostly because I needed the M1 battery life), it default-switched to Wayland after some updates and I only discovered on a work call that Wayland screensharing was broken. That was early this year. The details are fuzzy to me now, and my situation may have been odd as I had changed hardware from an Nvidia GPU to an AMD APU, but it was astounding as an end user that that was the state of this "production ready, replace everything under the sun with it" software.
