In reply to Alex de Borba.

Your description is much closer to how I perceive the primary issue with FSE. All the features are there (and production ready) but the Site Editor interface that brings everything together is still lacking. Don’t get me wrong. It’s getting better with each update but it’s still lacking.

So a new user can easily understand the content page editing but when they want to change a site header or footer, the Site Editor is like a completely different world that’s completely disorientating at first glance and not very intuitive.

For example, Squarespace is probably still easier to use in comparison, even though WordPress in my mind has better and more flexible features now. Once the Site Editor’s usability and user experience gets fully ironed out though, I think there will be a massive shift of users to WordPress from other platforms.
