Agreed. Also "desktop sharing" could be either "full-screen sharing" or "per-app sharing". My opinion is the latter is more important. That's my point: Ubuntu should not switch until GNOME on Wayland can provide equivalent functionality. For whatever reason, they're not there yet. It's not anyone's fault: it's unquestionably a lot of work. But just because it's no one's fault that the features aren't there doesn't mean Ubuntu should switch before they are. Being clear about which features are missing could help focus attention on those areas, but if it doesn't, it doesn't. That's OK too.
