I know the author is probably scratching their own itch there, but articles like this make me appreciate my WordPress blog. I don't have to think twice about this stuff. Especially if my main goal with the blog is to grow an audience and not learn Gatsby.

I have seen countless £millions spent on websites over a 10 year career in web that could have been achieved - without compromise - with WP+yoast.

Interesting. Do you include websites built using SSGs like Hugo, Gatsby in your statement? Also, any tips on how you handle security (with minimal maintainence) and page-load performance in Wordpress?

Security is always the trade off, and I don't have any good answers to that problem (aside regular maintenance).

The websites I'm thinking about, though, tended to be marketing websites ('microsites') for large consumer brands, that really didn't do a great deal functionally, and didn't need particularly robust security in the grand scheme of things.
