I acknowledge the capability of the engine which seems rather impressive. But unfortunately it's basically obsolete. How exactly are designers supposed to easily update? Why reinvent the wheel when far more matured templating engines exist? As the web moves to the front end, this seems like a step backwards

Depends on the point of view, I see as a step backwards to dump a pile of JavaScript on the browser. Many web sites are perfectly fine with pure HTML/CSS.

I hate these fulljavascript websites that serves you articles, there is no need to use Javascript for that. Furthermore, isn't server-side rendering a thing even for "front-end frameworks"? server-side templates are still relevant. What is not is abusing Javascript everywhere even when it doesn't make sense.
