 * I totally sympathise with you [@codymckibb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/codymckibb/).
   My business is based around web design, programming, and in particular writing
   custom plugins for unique businesses. Since the experimental inclusion of the
   Gutenberg editor I kept returning to it when I had a new site to build, but always
   ended up reverted back to the Classic Editor.
 * There is no way my customers would be able to easily write content using the 
   current default Gutenberg editor. The support time I would have to devote to 
   teaching them how to use it would be enormous. It is like nothing they have used
   before. Simple tasks like typing a passage of text results in a new floating 
   blocks for each paragraph, every time they hit enter. Then clicking on one of
   these blocks causes tool bars to appear that hide the previous paragraph contents.
   It seems to make no logical sense. Users want something easy, flexible and familiar
   which works like MS Word or Google Docs. You had this with the Classic Editor.
 * I’ve also looked at the tutorials for writing plugins to make my own custom block
   types and I am afraid this too seems horrific and bizarrely complex. If I had
   a few months to sit and pull the code apart I may make some headway but I have
   to earn a living. Please, for the love of all things WordPress, NEVER remove 
   the Classic Editor plugin as it will kill the product.
