Wayland starting to work

That's quite an unfair characterization of the motivation for creating Wayland.

It was created by people who previously spent years of their life and blood making improvements to X and Xorg which we all take for granted now.

Wayland was born from the realization that X has limitations which cannot be overcome without breaking compatibility. Admittedly I didn't fully realize this myself until years later (I was too busy working on improving X and Xorg). Now it's clear that if it didn't happen, the Linux desktop would have hit a wall by now, unable to provide features people want. The people who created Wayland deserve respect for thinking about how to prevent that long before most people even realized it could happen.
