In reply to Daniel James.

Imho when having a Woo Store I would still go with a theme from Yith or Woostify, because it is custom built for Woo. But for personal blogs and single page websites I'll go with blocks. And many people would still opt for magazine themes as it provide all necessary feature for them.

Personally I can't code, so when my requirement for a theme is like the above mentioned I'll go with a theme rather than reinventing the wheel
from the very first.
