1. Display servers are highly security sensitive and cannot be shipped in good faith unless they are well maintained. The only high-profile X server still around, xorg, is entirely unmaintained outside its Xwayland support, and no one is willing to step up. Volunteers own their own life and time within it and have no obligation to pick up arbitrary projects and tasks. The primary way to make people do something no one volunteers for is to hire them and pay them for it, but no one is interested in that either. (One person did famously, and very vocally, volunteer and do a lot of work, but unfortunately almost all of it had to be reverted recently after it was found to break everything.) 2. Wayland and X does, for and enduser, coexist through Xwayland. You just no longer run a "native" X11 display server that controls hardware directly. Most Wayland servers afford Xwayland some slight additional controls for just the X11 windows, allowing applications to work seamlessly, so everything is fine. And no, the "most" qualifier is no issue at all as applications relying on such control also only worked with some X11 window managers.
