Standalone blog posts not tied to a business listing

Right now, every blog post on the directory has to be attached to a specific business listing. I'd love the ability to publish standalone blog posts at the directory level that aren't tied to any one business.
A few examples of how I'd use this:
Business owner interviews – spotlight features on local owners, where the article is about the person and their story, not just a single listing page
Roundups and list posts – e.g. "Top 10 Coffee Shops in the Valley" that reference multiple businesses
General local content – community news, events, guides, and educational posts about the area
This would let the directory function more like a local publication, which helps with SEO, gives businesses another reason to be featured, and gives visitors a reason to come back beyond searching for a listing.
Ideally these standalone posts could still link out to business listings where relevant, just without being locked to one.
Is this something on the roadmap, or could it be considered?
