Hi, Xwayland is basically an X server, like any X server, it requires an X11 Window manager for the users to manipulate the windows on screen (size, location, stacking etc.)
And since those X11 windows go along with Wayland native surfaces, it makes a lot of sense to have that X11 window manager in the Wayland compositor.
