Nope, you misunderstood the text.

"This doesn't mean that remote rendering won't be possible with Wayland,
it just means that you will have to put a remote rendering server on top
of Wayland. One such server could be the X.org server".

So, you will need a nested X11 server. Like you need on Windows or
MacOS. That's all.

You will see a desktop (compositor) running on top of Wayland, a browser
(just an example) window using also Wayland and your X11 applications
running like native applications.
