I can use static site generators (and have used several in the past: Jekyll, Middleman, nanoc), but now I can simply open the web site and start writing. I don't need to be at home in front of my personal computer. I don't need to fiddle with themes and templates.
WRT to JAMstack and headless CMS: I cannot use those. I don't understand them. I certainly won't learn JavaScript and install huge development platforms and tool chains, just to write a few words (and sometimes even a photo).
Security is mostly a non-issue: Keep the number of plugins small, use WP Super Cache, and most of your pages are static anyway (and nginx will serve them without even running any PHP if you so wish).
