Always wondered that, actually. I think it's people looking for RP. You know, like the countless "would love to RP this" comments on rule34.xxx. Except subtle-ish

    Not trans but...

    X11 lets anyone do anything. That's bad. A window can type for you and see what you're typing. Windows level opsec

    Wayland only lets root do weird stuff. That's good. You need privileges to see what a given person is typing or to move their mouse

    However, Wayland is still undercooked. It doesn't have standardized remote desktop functionality, for example. So it's really more of a "what are you willing to sacrifice" thing. Do you want security or features?

    There's also internal differences but to the end user those don't really matter
