Sure the wire protocol for a SunRay wasn't X11, because it wasn't suitable for remote display even then, but there wouldn't have been applications to run on a SunRay without a local X server that could output to the SunRay protocol, much like how you could run a Wayland compositor which outputs to RDP and runs Xwayland for local apps. The apps didn't natively speak SunRay, so Sun invested in the X11 ecosystem with GNOME and StarOffice to make their product useful. While GNOME and KDE and COSMIC and LibreOffice and Firefox all exist today and are maintained by amazing volunteers, I don't see any vendor with the same kind of urgency putting effort into Wayland and accessibility to dot all the 'i's and cross all the 't's
