Comment:
Thank you for the suggestion, @arush!
I appreciate your point that Gutenberg still needs improvement for
assistive technology and keyboard-only users, though I think it's a little
unfair to describe the Gutenberg team's attitude as "complete
accessibility and usability, (or the lack thereof), are not blockers when
it comes to release of Gutenberg".
As we get closer to WordPress 5.0, there's a good discussion to be had
over how we recommend installing the Classic Editor plugin, and who we
recommend it to, but I think it's premature to be recommending that an
entire demographic opt-out now.
