In reply to Eric.

I’m not apologising for the state of the new block editor, but if you install the latest version of TinyMCE Advanced and configure it to Classic Paragraph you get back much of the usability of the old editor, not all, but quite a lot. There are a few glitches but Apparently these are being ironed out.

Of course, we also have the option to fall back to the old editor by plugin and other means. You can even engineer themes to have a switch to disable the new editor like Elegant Themes did with Divi.
