You've mentioned that repeatedly, yes - the only problem is that,
AFAICT, you're wrong. Per Blender's own documentation,* restoring saved
window positions does not work under Wayland, on account of Wayland's
developers deliberately choosing not to provide a mechanism for this.

* https://docs.blender.org/manual/en/latest/getting_started/installing/linux_windowing_environment.html
  https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/98928
  https://projects.blender.org/blender/blender/issues/113558

(I will concede that it's possible their documentation is wrong and
you're right, but as it's a known fact that Wayland has historically
declined to provide a mechanism for this and its developers have only
recently backed down on that, it would not be my first guess.)

If Blender's own documentation is anything to go by, probably not!
