Is the Block Editor Somebody's Idea of a Joke?

The new block editor is one of the worst pieces of software I’ve ever had the misfortune to run into. And even with my Premium Plan, I can’t disable it and use the classic editor instead. . . unless I upgrade to the ~$240 annual Business Plan.
Thanks for nothing WordPress. It’s not feasible for me to ditch you. But I can, and will, do everything I can to direct my colleagues and students and friends who want to create a Web site to use anything but WordPress.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We have tips for transitioning from the classic editor to blocks https://wordpress.com/support/switching-from-the-classic-to-the-block-editor/ and FAQs: https://wordpress.com/support/replacing-the-older-wordpress-com-editor-with-the-wordpress-block-editor/#frequently-asked-questions
And, if you really want to use something like the classic editor, we recommend sticking with the classic block: https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/blocks/classic-block/
We also have some extensive documentation available at https://wordpress.com/support/wordpress-editor/
If you have any feedback on the new editor, we’re always looking for ways to improve it, so please let us know!

I’ve loved WordPress for years — and WP support (including yours) has always been great.
But the block editor is an absolute disaster.

The Classic Editor is still available to all members. I wonder why staff-blorbo didn’t tell you this, and how to gain access to it.
