This is incorrect. You are not in possession of any of the facts.

Wayland does not run under an X server.

X runs under wayland. That is what Xwayland is. It is a rebuilt copy of
Xorg, that is wrapped as a wayland application. It allows running
Xorg-only software, under an Xorg server, and displays that Xorg server
*inside* the top level display, which is wayland.

Xwayland is a kind of container environment. It only has to run upon
launching an application that requires Xorg.
