Congrats. You made the argument that popular == good.
WooCommerce also has an extensive extension list, integrations with all the payment providers out there and it's easy to get help / support be it free or payed
This is WordPress' biggest selling point, but it is also its biggest downfall. The vast majority of those "extensions" (plugins) are horribly made and are security nightmares, then they often only get you 90% of what you need so they can sell you the last 10% for a subscription fee. How would you know how to determine which ones are good or not? You need to be experienced enough with WordPress.
Yes, it is easy to get support, particularly paid (not "payed" FYI) but again, since WordPress is so popular, it's prime real-estate for shitty """WordPress Developers""" (not actually developers) to essentially bait people into their scam of pretending they are actually developers and providing work that leaves you worse off.
How do I know all of this? Well I happen to work with WordPress professionally as the lead developer for an agency where I manage literally hundreds of WordPress sites and host all of them myself on servers I manage for them (not shared hosting reselling).
Unfortunately, yes. The vast majority of them are from shitty people that are on my block list. Only a few are just prolific posters, like Picard Maneuver and Flying Squid.
I like how you claim that a software engineer "thinking" their code will work is comparable to a literal "all knowing god" as if they are remotely similar.
Are they the same, as in they are similarly fallible, or is an "all knowing god" more than the average software engineer? Pick one. You can't have both.
