 When the front page or another page is a placeholder for a post archives
 page, it is an archive page shoehorned into a front-page or a single page,
 and should probably be considered a post type archive, or at least lead to
 a discussion, because this leads to unexpected functionality of the
 is_post_type_archive() function.
