The biggest problem is for new users. Once the dust has settled and Wayland is the default for everything (and there's plenty of searchable threads for how to fix X problem) then it will be great. But currently if you're a noob and you install a distro you don't know what either is. If you have this problem do you fix it with X or Y? Choice is great for enthusiasts, but just another hurdle for new users.

    We'll get there. Honestly I think in the long run Wayland will be easier to troubleshoot and maintain. But then that may just be memories of troubleshooting XFree86 back in the 90s. I still have flashbacks.
