Comment (by kosso):

 I have arrived here after having the same issue since we stopped using a
 'Classic Editor' plugin and switched to Gutenberg Blocks.

 I see the OP mentions "Wordpress is using the `site_url` host instead of
 the `home` host for composing inner REST API requests."

 The way I see it is the other way around. Surely?

 I thought `site_url` was the WordPress installation and `home` was the (or
 can be a) decoupled site on another domain, being fed by the REST API?  Am
 I wrong?

 eg: kosso.mydomain.com is my Wordpress install.    local.mydomain.com is a
 'decoupled' Angular site.

 If I change `site_url` to local.mydomain.com , then wp-admin 'breaks',
 with errors caused by styles and scripts being loaded from the wrong
 domain. (eg: jQuery) ie: the decoupled one.

 Also with this example, if I put kosso.mydomain.com in the `home` option
 field, my permalinks will also be poit to the worng (WP install) host too.


 Running Wordpress 5.3.2.

 Any info or pointers would be great thanks.
