This verges on sounding like a neural disorder to me. I notice screen tearing. So what? Please kill my framerate and bloat my latency an order of mag so I'm rid of this awful graphical artifact!! While the compositor's at it, maybe it can add delays with animations to when I close or minimize windows! (Just kidding; don't do that; that's way worse -- unless there's people who don't notice that that's the cost of eliminating tearing.) I'm using a computer. It's drawing frames. There should be tearing. Why would you want to boil the ocean and make the snappiness of your game/entire desktop worse to sustain some denial of the fact that you're at a computer?
Here's another thing, which proves that directly addressing tearing is false dharma: it gets better with higher refresh rates. Having higher Hz is awesome, and it's improving the issue to boot! It's like antialiasing. You're rendering stuff multiple times, taking enormous performance hits, sometimes now even using semi-sentient AI to smooth the jaggies out... when it turns out that the jaggies get better when you increase your resolution. False dharma: trying to live the lie of no jaggies on 768p @ 43 FPS; TRUE DHARMA: accepting and advancing your computerized existence on 4K @ 53 FPS. Same with tearing and refresh rate.
Also??? These days, adaptive sync (on the monitor hardware level, NOT software driver level) completely eliminates tearing. Another dharmically truer solution.
Also, while you're so hung up on tearing that you'd leave X11 for Wayland, you've clearly never experienced the awesomeness of xdotool, which isn't available on Wayland. You're not truly living. You're trapped in a gilded cage, satisfying merely the basest petty natures of man.
