1. I didn't say anything about wasting resources. NX is more efficient
only when one using legacy application. In other case there is no
efficiency.
2. We are talking about majority of the users. I'm leaving in Mexico
now, even here we have 4G everywhere and cheap fast Internet at home.
And the situation improving with every year. I don't say we need to
leave the people with bad Internet aside, I'm just saying we should more
concentrate on the future.

yepp, I also don't really like the direction where it's going. I really
like the ideas behind X11 - network transparency and all nice things.
However X11 has a lot of disadvantages and I'm pretty sure you know
about them not worse than I do. Anyway, unfortunately it's not for us to
decide, we should work with that what we have.

Same reason why I created X2Go in the first place. I looked on all
existing solutions, didn't like any of them and decided to create a new
one. And here we are.
