And that's all before auth methods and content protection, and customizing plugins to death so they work how you need - and not being able to update them once you do.
I love wp, use it on every site I own.... other than paysites.

that's why you should avoid plugins as much as possible. I use them only if what they do is so cool and sophisticated I won't want to build something else AND only if I don't need to edit them to avoid upgrade/update problems.
This being said, keep in mind there are literally INFINITE way to deal with WP. I'm not exaggerating, they're INFINITE. It's imple impossible you'll find something that works in any site that can't be done in WP, it's simple out of logic.
Listen, WP has evolved to a point where basically you could have an output for a database and nothing else, then it would be just queries to that database. You could even remote control most existing CMS, so BY DEFINITION, it's impossible there's something a CMS does that can't be done with WP. You can have content protected in any way you want, you can have it even outside your server, or in any kind of location.
Not sure what do you mean about content matching and categorizing because as a matter of fact I don't know anything close to WP in that aspect, so maybe I'm misunderstanding you, but that is one of the best features of WP. And with the use of custom taxonomies, there's simply no match. I mean: which CMS is able to create as many taxonomies as you want and match them in (again LITERALLY) infinite ways? And all of these is things you do without the need for plugins, let alone using plugins (which, again, I avoid as much as I can). And all of these without considering CROSS NETWORK content match!
