Unfortunately the number of reasons to revert to X11 is in constant growth.
Microprocessors are really cheap. Devices like mice should support customization
by individual device, which would greatly simplify the device support in the OS.
Developer time is a limiting resource for open source software. There have
been several documents explaining why the effort to maintain X11 has become
unsupportable and has been consuming resources needed elsewhere. I expect
future devices like mice and keyboards will become much smarter and fully
configurable, allowing simplifications of OS-level support. Configuration will
be done by running an app that updates the configuration stored in each
device. Today you can buy a mouse with limited programmable options
but the app runs on Windows.
