UPDATE 3: I did yet another new offline installation of Zorin OS 17.1
Core r2 on my laptop, with the NVIDIA 550.67 drivers and software
updates disabled. It defaulted to Xorg, just as before.

I then individually installed the update to the NVIDIA 550 drivers (from
version 550.67 to 550.107.02) using the Terminal, instead of doing a
full update of all the packages on the system. As a result, no other
packages were updated. Interestingly, it still logged into Xorg by
default after rebooting the computer.

It was only after I upgraded the Linux kernel to the latest 22.04 HWE
package (from version 6.5.0-35 to 6.8.0-40) that it switched to Wayland
automatically.

As a result, this behaviour seems to stem from an interaction between
both the NVIDIA 550.107.02 drivers and the Linux kernel 6.8.0-40 update.
