What is the Blog Home template for in FSE?

[ad_1]

Sorry for the silly question. I wanted to try out full site editing so I installed a couple block themes. Each one of them has a Blog Home template. In my settings I set the homepage to display my latest posts. I opened up my site and it has a static page with a bunch of content that came with the theme. I tried the next couple themes and I get the same thing. Finally I looked at the templates and noticed that the Blog Home template is where the content is coming from. I edited this template to include the query loop and my homepage finally started showing my blog posts. Later I noticed that the Index template includes the query loop but some of the themes displayed the posts in columns.

So, why do these themes have a Blog Home template that doesn’t show the blog posts?! Why would the theme not just create a “Sample” template to show off their fancy designs? Is there a setting somewhere that I accidently clicked on? So far, FSE feels like all the settings were shoved in a bag, shaken up, and now I have to reach in and feel around for what I hope to accomplish.
