Wordpress does one thing much better than headless CMS tools, which is that it empowers the non-technical folks who actually own the website to be able to change all of the site without friction. Headless CMS tools work well for writing content like blog posts and templatized webpages, but say someone in marketing or PMM wants to iterate/refine the text on the homepage - that requires them to have the developer make those changes. (You could give them GitHub access and let them use the editor, but in practice they might use it for urgent situations but not more regularly than that. They have 50 other important things to do and editing in GitHub is going to feel awkward.)
