Shameful.
As someone that has worked with Craft it has a ton of awful edge cases once you get deep into a project.
Craft absolutely does not scale.

To be fair I do think it is difficult to make a choice until you make an app of size you will not know about those edge cases.
My agency worked on a site which had ~1M+ pages and the backend became unusable (entries table was dead), task management had to be bespoke, search had to be dealt with by Elasticsearch amongst other things.
We've done two migrations from Craft for clients. WordPress isn't great, but Craft isn't a panacea either.
Feels more like their choice was made to fit with the agency capability.
Get a few hundred of those on a site and see how much ram you need.
