I am seeing the attention start to focus this way thou. Power portals etc for example and guest access to powerapps. Other discussions I’ve seen around other workloads and the scenarios around d external collaboration so hopefully we will see some improvements here further but yeah it’s def an area if needed improvement.

I highly doubt we will see a change here...when Office 365 started some years ago, we had the public site in SPO that as you know Microsoft decided to deprecate advising to have a public web site on popular web platforms such as WordPress and so on...PowerApps Portals could a good alternative here, but first you have to carefully review the prizing...and going back to the original question, SPO is not designed to provide this use case, this might change in the future thanks to the micro-services architecture that is running behind the scenes, but again I doubt it
