One thought: I assume the nylon version would be waterproof (coated) nylon of some type.
Canvas will breathe, but coated nylon will not. If you made a wall tent from coated nylon, you'd have to make some arrangement for ventilation, I think.
Many nylon tents have a waterproof coated fly that goes over the uncoated (breathable) nylon tent. That's one way to handle it, but it might change your frame arrangement.
