I don't see much value is discussing the validity of those excuses. It
is what it is. They don't want to work on X any more. [ ... ]

Xorg is still being maintained and patched, it seems:

Forgot to mention: it's not exactly clear to me what you mean to say
by /"They" don't want to work on X any more/

It has been stated, repeatedly, that the X.org maintainers have no desire to do any further development on X11, and they are only working on Wayland.


But anyways: Hoping the links are helpful.

It's certainly possible that an occasional patch/minor fix gets committed. But it's been reportedly, repeatedly, that "they" don't want to work on X11 any more. If you go back to the top of this thread you will find that stated by more than one person, who's in position to know.
