That's complete nonsense.
Quick setup and designs and loading times.
In WordPress, you have the choice of creating a custom design in your code editor or using the integrated block editor. The block editor is still evolving and can't do everything yet, but that's changing rapidly. Additionally, there is always the CSS editor. If someone wants more control in WYSIWYG mode, they can work in more professional editors, such as the Divi Site Builder.
Moreover, the ecosystem is huge. Bigger than with Hugo. If you just need a quick website for a craftsman business, it can be done in half a day, and it looks good.
The loading speed is only slower compared to a static website because WordPress is completely dynamic. But anyone who understands their craft reasonably well can achieve good loading times even with a website that has more than 14,000 articles from 900 authors, WooCommerce, paywalls, etc., according to every measurement tool (example: https://islamische-zeitung.de/ ).
No third-party connections.
This account has claimed that before, but WordPress does not make requests to third parties. The above-mentioned, well-loaded website does not have a single third-party request. Of course, this has to do with the choice of plugins. If you choose bad themes or plugins, it can happen that Google is fully embedded. And even if it is, there are very simple ways to get rid of such requests.
Updates
This is the first time I've heard that security updates are something bad. WordPress is, of course, widely used and therefore a honeypot. But the update policy is so secure that I have set all my WordPress sites to "automatic updates" (the operator doesn't notice anything) and my sites have not broken even once in several years. So that's just another myth.
WordPress has no bloat unless you make it that way. It's not for nothing that it is the most widely used CMS and can do almost anything, which cannot be said of Hugo.

quoting note1xp6…kackWhy does WordPress suck?
a) Slower for visitors
You're selling less business, people are walking away from your malware that loads slow.
Search engines punish slow speed.
b) Slower to make
I hope you like carpel tunnel. WordPress forces you to go in a browser and manually modify shit with a mouse, which is proven to hurt your hands in the long term. Plus it's slow load speeds to work on something constantly reloading on a remote server, so you're urinating on your own time. On top of network issues with Tor
c) Leeching Big Tech malware.
You're leaking to the government your income, your sales, and reducing your freedom of speech. While it's technically true WordPress is "open source", it has malware Google fonts by default on the front end, jsdeliver to function, and Cloudflare and Google on the backend. Then to do most tasks, you to install 3rd party plugins which are often closed source and have security vulnerabilities. This is because WordPress suffers from mission creep, where they want to do everything.
d) Hypocrite
You say you want decentralization, but your customers think you're a hypocrite. Most uBlock Origin users immediately see the google fonts and JSDeliver and know you're using WordPress. Now you're trying to sell them on your expertise, but you're using amateur tools.
e) WordPress plugins need constant updates for security, but your setup has a unique combination of plugins. Therefore, as time passes by, the probability of a unique failure increases, which costs more money to solve.
Instead, ditch bloat WordPress, and go with Hugo.
Hugo is a static site generator. This means it generates static content locally on your computer, then you upload and serve a finished static thing. On the other hand, malware WordPress has a live database, and then dynamically creates that content on the site while your visitors wait for it to load.
With Hugo, you don't need any coding knowledge to easily and effortlessly format text, add pictures, and change the layout of your articles, on your local offline computer with the keyboard like an alpha male, as opposed to a worthless carpel tunnel bitch clicking a mouse in a remote browser using Big Tech malware.
Consider reaching out to Simplified Privacy's on-staff graphic designer to help you transition your content over to Hugo, to become a master of your domain. (DM me)
