I think the value of making Wayfire look like the old LXDE environment is inversely related to your system experience. If you already have dealt with a bunch of compositors, window managers and operating systems, just learning the ins and outs of another one is not a big lift. You may also be using different one anyways, and thus get no value from the investment RPL made. Personally, making it "look the same" while not being in the same is just annoying, and I would have preferred a stock Wayfire. I do understand why they did it though.
I think there are too many differences and different functionality to get a complete list of equivalences. It gets messy since you have to deal with compositors, window managers, "development frameworks/toolkits" (or whatever you are calling Qt and gtk), and windowing systems in a bunch of mix and match combinations.
