The devs aren't anybody's lackeys either. Many are doing it for free in their own time. If you dont want Wayland, then support X11 with code, money, or documentation. If you don't support the X11 devs and maintainers, then you're making a decision to let it die and nobody's "forcing you" to use Wayland.
