 > I think that we need some priority for block themes in the themes
 repository.

 I don't think that ''priority'' is quite the correct context. Block themes
 are categorically different than "classic" themes, because of the nature
 of the theme, the Site Editor experience, and Global Styles.

 It's not that we should prioritize block themes, but rather indicate that
 these are a new class of themes that diverge from the classic theme
 WordPress experience. If someone unknowingly switches from a block theme
 (like the default Twenty Twenty-Two theme) to a classic theme, they'll
 loose the core WordPress functionality that they may be familiar
 with/reliant on.

 > If block themes are the future and are better and easier, they don't
 need any extra promotion.

 It's not about promotion, but education and discoverability.
