I wonder how complex it would be to convert spectrwm to Wayland....

Check out the project called pinnacle. https://github.com/pinnacle-comp/pinnacle

Also, there is river, where, I believe, once can mimic the behaviour of any window manager.

I meant from an idealistic perspective i.e a small and minimal, but featureful WM with a simple config and a built in bar, where all you reasonably need is covered, no useless extras. I think Pinnacle is trying to be an AwesomeWM replacement rather than a Spectrwm replacement. And that's great, because I love Awesome, but for very different reasons to Spectrwm.
