I don't think anyone can be faulted for not seeing the full potential of blocks early on. WordPress had failed at presenting a cohesive, long-term roadmap. We're getting a much clearer picture now compared to three years ago.

As for me, I just want to keep pushing theme/plugin companies to build awesome things. I feel like part of my role is presenting ideas on what they could be doing, or at least ideas that they can challenge or build upon.
