Comment (by danielbachhuber):

 > Aside, In an API world (which is where we're heading), a `show_in_rest`
 config doesn't make sense at all.

 We've had to make many, many, many design compromises (cough cough, sticky
 posts) because of WordPress' historical application architecture. You're
 working with 15+ years of code, not a shiny brand new project.
