On our website (All IT Limited) we have used the Yoast SEO plugin and it’s performing well. I don’t think this metadata should come with the WordPress core system. Because every webmaster thinks SEO on their way of achieving. I think this is why WordPress doesn’t provide SEO things by default and I think this is why WordPress is unique in SMS’s work.
I hope most of the community users will agree on it. Example: Some people like Yoast, some may like RankMath, even some users prefer other SEO plugins depending on their preferences. Hope you understand it.
