We use a few of those. They are closer than Wordpress to the requirements of a custom template and/or a flexible content model. They’re also architected in a way that makes modern dev workflow easier (e.g., they don’t store full URLs in the database) and making architectural decisions to support static hosting and CDNs is more reliable and flexible. As we do custom development, generally, Wordpress increases the budget or reduces the quality and longevity of the final product. We would only use it if required by a client. For time-limited DIY or clients with no budget, though, Wordpress with a $50 theme is often the way to go. There will always be a large group that can’t move to systems that require more design and development knowledge.
