I thought that the Wayland architecture is in some way 
fundamentally better than X architecture, the same way D 
templates are fundamentally better than imitating them with a 
macro preprocessor, C or otherwise.

But I think you said that it was not about anything that required 
a redesign from ground up. Like, redesigning the whole Phobos 
because `Algebraic` sucks instead of adding `SumType` would be 
our analogy of what Wayland devs did.

I have to study differences in their approach more before I 
decide which I personally prefer.
