No, the best way forward is to move to wayland when it can handle all of this. The reason S76 is doing this is that most of their customers are still on X. Wayland is not feature complete yet, and thus the X experience needs to still be good. This is a good thing because it allows people to stay on X and enjoy some of the same features of Wayland until it is time to switch. For instance, when Nvidia finally supports wayland, that might be the time that switching to wayland would be more feasible.
