The real issue is that customers without knowledge are asking explicitly for wordpress instead letting us techs give the best advice.

Most techs give terrible advice.

On the other hand, most techs are bias. That is, the tool they know is always the best solution, whether that's true to not.

Yeah, perhaps there are times when WP isn't the ideal choice from a pure technology POV, but there's more to it than that. For example, most (solo) devs complete dismiss the "getting hit by a bus" test. Sorry, but no one should accept advice from anyone who dismisses that test.

wordpress is being marketed, deployed and then abandoned without maintenance by seo experts and designers, not techs nor devs.
