@scripting in my experience, as someone who has built hundreds of WP sites but none headless, performance is often used as a selling point to go headless. You can ship your front end via static file hosting in Cloudflare or GitHub, removing the need for PHP compute at runtime and page caching. That said though, there are more negatives than positives for most sites. In the agency/ad space where I work, the SEO/indexing stuff is too weird. I think the skillsets diff a lot too
