There are two types of industrialized wheat. Dwarf and semi-dwarf. Compared to ancient wheats like eikorn we're probably now realizing how bad these are impacting health. Diabetes, celiac, etc. There are, at least, studies focusing on it now [0].
The study finds that gluten consumption hasn't increased over the past few decades and that a culprit is more likely "wheat genetics"
Anecdotally, I don't know if you know many genuinely GF people, but the ones I know have all said that they can eat bread while in European countries, but have bad reactions back home.
