So the fact that someone was a developer of X, means their resilient to following some agenda or non objective opinion? There's a really famous and often quoted talk about X vs Wayland from one of those developers and it was clearly made in a way to present Wayland in a better light by purposely portraying X11 in a bad way, for example by leaving out crucial details. Like in one example they picked on the slow startup time of applications and attributed it to the blocking calls made to X.org, without even mentioning that asynchronous alternatives are not only available, but toolkits like Qt were already using them exclusively at that time. The verdict of course was that X11 is broken and fixing that is almost impossible.
