My whole point is "do not do anything to it". You don't need plugins (I'll make one exception - have & test backups), you don't need docker/database/whatever because you're paying someone else a pittance to deal with that.

If you want a blog, stop fucking around with your configuration and write.

Agreed — this was the point of the article. Tooling is a distraction from what you wanted to do in the first place. Just pick the one you can get the thing done with, whether it’s Hugo or Gatsby or WordPress or whatever.
