 > There is a significant issue here with the way that this would work with
 respect to our handling of "home" and the `post` post type archive (blog
 page).

 #16379 - let's not rabbit hole this ticket based on that. I disagree that
 the UI absolutely has to make all post types equivalent - a user typically
 does not recognize that they utilize the same thing underneath and does
 not necessarily expect the same thing from all of them.

 Other things aside, though, we do have a base issue of "where do we put
 this and what does this promise to the user" - does it promise the user
 that the archive works as they expect it? Is there some bigger picture
 thing we can think about with other "virtual" pages?
