Comment:

 Hey @cbgraphics!

 Thanks for the enhancement suggestion!

 I think that's a good suggestion, but also maybe too opinionated. Some may
 see this home page as a "whole" separate page rather than an archive of
 sorts, linking to different parts. That's the case the theme is built for,
 and why the pages aren't linked.

 Some users may want this and some may not. So it's best to stick to one,
 and let users modify the theme via a child theme if need be.

 In #37974, a more permanent solution is being worked on for this, which
 may make it into a future version of WordPress. There, the sections become
 a new whole page, and the individual pages that make up the home page
 redirect to the home page, instead of going to the page.
