I've adopted the idea that a blog post is archived when it's published; I don't want to tinker with it again. Old pages may have an old style, but that's OK, it's an archive. Copy/paste works great for this.
The only reason I use a blog engine now (Hugo) is for RSS. I kept messing up or forgetting manual RSS edits.
I really love this! I've seen it in action a couple times in the wild, and it's super cool seeing how the site's design has evolved over time.
It also has the benefit of forcing you to keep your URIs stable. Cool URIs don't change: https://www.w3.org/Provider/Style/URI.html
