The desktops being roughly similar is only a necessity for users who

Cinnamon shouldn't be such a chore.

Wont the obsolence of X11 put and end to that?  Many Desktop
Environments and Window Managers won't work at all on Wayland, from what
I understand.

 Seriously though, X11 continues to be viable and works well.  So far,
I haven't seen anyone articulate why Wayland would be better.
