Yes, visudo is fine with space apparently. But OP has %wheel in sudoers.d already, so he can comment it out. There is also a bit more verbose syntax now (ALL:ALL), which is not used in his sudoers.d, but that, again, shouldn’t change anything.
All you need is plasma-wayland-session and you switch between the two in sddm bottom corner - simple.
Btw, did you go over SDDM troubleshooting? There have to be some env vars, dot files or something on your computer with obsolete settings.
I am unable to find it, so cannot really install it. That I know of anyway. From the chroot environment:
$ pacman -Qs plasma-wayland-session
$
At the danger of sounding like a typical user. I read through the article, yes, but I couldn’t see anything applicable to me…
Edit:
Just went through the troubleshooting again, and I saw this:
3.3 Hangs after login
Try removing ~/.Xauthority and logging in again without rebooting. Rebooting without logging in creates the file again and the problem will persist.
Which I admit sounds like it, but I don’t know if it’ll work removing the file from chroot, considering I can’t use the TTY because I have to login before restarting…
…And got a surprise that it worked! So I ran startx and while it looked like it worked, the splash screen with the spinner appeared again, it did the same as previously…
So I did a reboot, and tried to login with wayland. Which, I first checked, is installed:
So I tried it, I selected it as choice in SDDM, in the bottom-left corner and everything.
But no, it seems maybe something went wrong, that I don’t know what it is. It logs in and gives a black screen, and stays on that screen…
Here is what I think is the latest log:

So, I might be wrong about this, but I don’t think it’s because of X, since Wayland also gives issues. Here is what I could find in journalctl about wayland:
Next thing I’d try is disabling the display manager completely and see if you can start KDE from the console. Should confirm one way or the other if SDDM is the problem;
Check ~/.profile for any commands that don’t execute properly (but return non-zero exit code instead). May include ~/.bash_profile and .zprofile too. Downgrading to SDDM 0.19 also restores desktop after login.
You are right. It didn’t make sense and no, I don’t know where my confusion happened. So I did it again, just now.
I also can’t log in with the new user, it returns to the login screen when I enter the correct password, and when I enter the wrong one, the expected behaviour, of a short timepoout, occurs.
To be fair, in the logs they appear as warnings, at least to me, being yellow and all that, not errors, which are red. And AFAIK warnings aren’t show-stoppers like errors.
