If you don't want anything to do with Wayland, start by not using Gnome (and not using GDM). Not using Gnome is not the only way to avoid it, but Gnome is front and center the prime implementer and proponent of Wayland, with KDE/Plasma not too far behind.

XWayland enables using non-Wayland (X11) apps in a Wayland session.

If you want to minimize the risk of being confused by inxi, always use as close as you can manage to the most recent version released. Latest inxi from stable Debian 98.7% of the time is old. Current from upstream is 3.3.33:

Inxi can be updated using its own -U switch with superuser rights in Debian at any time after disabling its -U disabler contained in /etc/inxi.conf by changing B_ALLOW_UPDATE=false to B_ALLOW_UPDATE=true.
I updated inxi but as you could imagine it gave me the same results.
So, gnome always uses wayland + xwayland.
If I wanted to use a pure xorg session, would I have to change DE?
