Interesting. Let me ruminate, there is a lot to say on this. The Venn diagram will only potentially land on a very small cohort of potential clients interested or aware of such a service. Benjamin makes the point above.

Dare I say that it relates to that particular ailment that big tech companies and related owners sometimes suffer from: ego, opinion, and dominance?

In any event I would say that with much of this the service will be limited by what the powers at WordPress considers a website and, judging by the block editor, it doesn’t include many use cases.

From experience much of the work on projects revolves around getting the client into an understanding of what they need to do to have an online presence.

So for niche topics, I think designers will be unaffected. And, when it comes to the content of a site, if the client hardly understand their specific business model, crafted into good content, I don’t see the WordPress teams being clued into cajoling said clients into the right space to achieve this. A lot of this is specific to local culture with the specifics of each topic.
