Is there a reason we don't see the Wankel rotary engine being used more as an alternative to the piston engine? I've heard different reasons but there must be a reason that its not used in every engine today.

I see that it was first used as an aircraft engine shortly before WW1 and later Norton Motorcycles gave it a "whirl".
