I think the main problem is that Wayland is not a drop in replacement.

Every software needs to support Wayland, new environment flags need to be created, flags must be used with electron apps…

Nvidia support has been spotty and some functionality has not yet been implemented. I use a custom .xcompose file, which doesn’t work on electron apps. Let me know if there’s a better way to mimic window’s dead keys.

Overall, it’s hard for an end user to change from a solution that is working perfectly to a solution that requires a ton of work and doesn’t yet have the same functionality.

Everyone can understand that Wayland is the future but depending on your needs and hardware the current experience can be great or terrible.
