Great post Matt. You hit the biggest myths for sure. I'd add:

There's a maximum number of plugins you can/should have on your site.

(False, it's quality that matters much more than quantity)

@mattwatson good post, especially on the security point.

I’d love to see some usability studies on how people actually find using Gutenberg blocks - we’ve had mixed feedback from our clients on this (though we don’t currently use GB a lot).

But as a general point people are really familiar with WordPress so it has become easy to use for most people.

@mattwatson plugins slow your site down.
