Comment (by Cybr):

 I faced the same issue; discussed at Slack
 https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/CTKTGNJJW/p1604995479019700.

 A proper workaround to this would be to maintain an active cache with
 page/term/author IDs you wish to exclude. Then, inject those into the
 query as exclusions. However, this is not an easy feat since WordPress is
 quite dynamic.

 I believe Yoast SEO provides such a system with "Indexables," something
 that's challenging to incorporate and maintain.
