Why is Wayland trying to monkey patch something that's broken elsewhere?

Except for the fact that Wayland has had a fractional scaling protocol for some time now. Qt implements it. There's some unknown reason that GTK won't pick it up. But anyway, it's definitely there. There's even a beta-level implementation in Firefox, etc.
