They might have used one too many negations, but they had hardware "not working without Wayland".

They said they used to use Mint, implying Mint doesn't have Wayland. But that is software not hardware.

Re-reading, I suspect the new hardware with high-DPI requires Wayland, because X11 has poor support for high-DPI (implying Wayland supports it better).
