I've managed a couple of WordPress installs for friends and family and my experience has largely been the opposite in that there's very little truly dynamic content. Of the dynamic content, the vast majority could just be an API (either home-grown or paid 3rd party SaaS). The flip side of the dynamic content is that every Wordpress I've ever worked on is a horrifying mountain of plugins managed by the world's worst package manager. Plugin A needs to be updated because it has a vulnerability, which requires plugin B to be updated, but the theme hasn't gotten updates in 6 years and plugin B is using new stuff the theme doesn't support, so either the site has to be re-built with a new theme or plugin A just needs to be left at a vulnerable version. Static sites get around some of that because vulnerable plugins only exist at build-time. I'm not worried about using an old version of Hugo or Jekyll, but I'm very worried about using old Wordpress plugins.
