Ok, that makes more sense (or at least explains why). I'm puzzled that there hasn't ever been anything done to make this less of a tangly mess; it seems like it'd be a huge step towards making linux a better platform to iron something like this out. However, that's probably just wishful thinking, as I have no idea what it'd take technically or politically to make that happen.

But because the earlier ones relied too much on the old X code, they were not succesful, and Wayland has not yet secured support from the graphics cards manufacturers (except Intel). Mir is promised to change all that, but we will have to see.
