This happened quite often for various UI settings etc. Often there were technical reasons for removing the option (e.g. rewrites where they dropped features with low usage), but it is a real thing.
No, it absolutely is very far off, unless you find actual studies & user feedback. Lets not do weird mental gymnastics to find logic in pure hyperbole. You gotta give me way more than one 1-week-old bug, and one bug that was quickly caught and fixed. Bugs are going to happen in software that is worked on.
The reason X was stable for a long time is because many new & nowadays important features (like fractional scaling) weren't being worked on, the ecosystem was mostly frozen. There's more churn around Wayland because it's newer & supports more (and often structurally much better) approaches to solving its problems. Don't want to get caught in that? Maybe don't use a distro that is specifically known for shipping new software very quickly.
Ah, if it's not working right for you, it obviously means it's not working right for 60% of people.
What's that? The situation has improved dramatically over the last two years, and many happily use Nvidia cards with Wayland without issues, me included? No, can't be the case, you still have issues.
It's been a while since I used Windows, but back then my company blocked the Store, so I couldn't install the Terminal through that. But it was easy to install through the released msix package - maybe you can install that through Winget?
