Comment (by rcwatson):

 https://pillser.com/engineering/2024-06-10-website-without-404s outlines a
 possible solution for creating a fuzzy URL matching system to reduce 404s.
 If this is something that could be made feasible for WordPress without
 negatively impacting SEO, it would be a huge win for website owners and
 SEOs alike.
