The overwhelming majority of systems consist of one monitor. For the minority on two monitors the overwhelming majority have 2 low DPI monitors or 2 high DPI monitors.
For those with mixed DPI screens only recently has any system supported scaling xwayland apps appropriately on such setups meaning some apps look like garbage and they still do on gnome. xrandr --scale to scale per screen has worked since 2003 and per screen fractional scaling works on Cinanamon under X right now.

Single screen: Wayland == X
Multiple similar DPI Wayland == X

Mixed DPI with a mix of Wayland on X apps on every desktop but KDE X > Wayland
5%
Mixed DPI with a mix of wayland and X apps on KDE Wayland > X
Mixed DPI with only wayland apps Wayland > X
I wonder why something that is only better for 5% and worse for 5% and requires 100% to deal with bugs missing features and growing pains has negative feelings attached!
