Any recommendations for a CMS that is as pleasant to write in as WordPress but designed from the start for outputting static files? I feel like that would have some advantages over trying to hammer WordPress (and more importantly its plugin ecosystem) to act as an SSG.

I don't have recent experience here but, last time I used WP (10+ years ago), they had caching plugins. Isn't that kind of the same? If not, couldn't you just yank out the editor of WP if you think it's more pleasant and put it into anything else you wanted?
