Yeah, no I have my own wm in Ruby that is fewer lines of code than a typical Wayland Hello World, and that does what I want. I have no reason to want to throw that away for something that doesn't offer me any features I care about, and removes features I do. Such as the ability to just restart my wm if I make a change to it without affecting my current session at all.

Unless you can show me a solution that lets me replace my tiling and floating wm in ca 1500 lines of Ruby, and will let me restart without restarting my session, what you're offering me is inferior to what I have with X

It's called an extension. What's the point of mandating a (bad) IPC API?
