That's fine for you, but yet again you do not seem to understand that
something not being important to *you, personally* does not mean that
*other people* don't care about it.

Which is sort of the crux of the whole thing, as the Wayland developers
also embody this sort of "I don't need XYZ, therefore nobody else does"
thinking, and are learning the hard way that that kind of attitude is
mostly only gonna win converts from the set of people who *already*
think like them.

They could, yes. They could pour developer hours into re-engineering
their entire layout/workflow and force their userbase on *every other
platform* (including Linux under X11) to adapt to the new way of doing
things, all for the sake of aligning with the design philosophy of a
minority of a minority of their userbase.

Sure! Makes sense to *me!*
