Archive page > QL is tied to reading setting's Blog Max Post and can generate 404 through pagination rel next (block setting vs old classic way) #79822

What problem does this address?

Adding a query loop block into an archive template make the pagination be tied to the Reading's Setting Max Post
despite we are under the FSE Paradigm.

Example : Add a QL into an archive page, with 15 items, set the Item per page block setting to 25
In this case, the page 2 URL is generated

Despite the pagination block is deleted, the block still generates the link rel="next"

The explanation : the pagination use the old way despite there is a block dedicated setting
Settings > Reading > Blog pages show at a most (10 is the default value on fresh installs)

Can be linked to this issue #63028

What is your proposed solution?

Stop using the Reading's Blog Max Post to Show !!!
it's time to move to full full FSE ;-)
