 * Really, this is the classic WYSIWYG. I understand the block editor can be great
   for the general public but, as a from-scratch theme developer who crafts bespoke
   themes for clients, I like to have control over the content that gets rendered,
   and this classic editor outputs no strange blocks, classes, elements and all 
   those bells and whistles of Gutenberg.
 * Hopefully this gets forked someday and I don’t need to move to other CMS. This
   classic editor made WordPress what it is and, if it’s gone, I would need to migrate
   all my sites to something else having a simple WYSIWYG editor.
 * Having the block editor as default in new WordPress installations is okay, but
   would be good to have an option to choose editor instead of installing this plugin.
