Would have been more motivating to write this in as a Feature Request in the Support Forums 🙂

OK well, if that’s how you feel about it, don’t add it. But I don’t understand the point of a FAQ with no FAQ schema. Your plugin isn’t the only one to miss this really important point. Kadence accordion blocks at least have a switch to turn on the FAQ schema for their accordions. But AIOSEO doesn’t in the free version – you have to buy the Pro version to get the FAQ schema, even though they feature a FAQ block in the free version. I think that AIOSEO approach is kind of bait and switch: they don’t tell you about it ahead of time. I’ve been looking at a bunch of FAQ block plugins and most either ignore the schema part – in which case there’s not much difference between a “FAQ block” and a simple accordion – or they want you to pay for the schema – fair enough if they’re upfront about it.
The way I feel is that if you have asked this as a support request, I would have done it 🙂 I didn’t know about the FAQ schema. This plugin is also a block plugin, without JS, meant to be as light as possible, so the idea is not to have a plugin packed with a huge amount of features. But again, I think it’s interested to have a FAQ schema. I don’t think a bad review is the proper way to ask, that’s all.

You’re right, I should have asked nicely in a feature request! So I’ll do that now. And your thoughtful responses to my admittedly hasty and unfair original review are commendable.
Just a reminder, the FAQ schema feature request was made by someone else 4 years ago.
