Programming is about critical thinking. Very few blocks ever get accepted, because they are workaroundable, or just plain not good ideas. I'm sorry if I am offending anyone. But it's the truth.
Not just tedious, scratch is mainly for kids around 12 to learn how to program. We don't want to make things complicated. If you don't support it because it has a workaround, then we should remove these blocks too! They also have workarounds!
*scratchblocks too long to quote*
There is a difference between intermediate block and intermediate workaround, and easy block and intermediate workaround. You're talking about removing blocks for beginners, and replacing with intermediate workarounds.
It's sarcasm don't you see? They have workarounds doesn't mean they shouldn't be add.
you fail to see my point. My point was that intermediate blocks will make the system more complicated. You were talking about replacing basic blocks with intermediate workarounds. I can deal with that, but new scratchers can't.

So we shouldn't make scratch complicated! That's why this need to be implement.

Two questions:
A. Are there preset fonts similar to costumes?
B. Would this act like a typewriter, in the sense that it pastes words?

I was thinking that Scratch should have a “Print” function:
print [] :: pen
It would work as it does in other languages, printing the input.
There would also be related blocks to support it:
newline :: pen

set print font to [ v] :: pen

set print size to ( v) :: pen

set print colour to [#ff0000] :: pen

set print boldness to ( v) :: pen // I forgot this block. 0 is super light, 100 is super thick.

print [] to x:() y:() :: pen // Suggested by Pot-Of-Gold and Samanyolu

set print [ v] effect to () :: pen
change print [ v] effect by () :: pen // Blocks suggested by Samanyolu

Then along with the new blocks should come new fonts, or maybe even an option to choose your own font from a certain file. Fonts aren't even that relevant anyway

that's not the point, the reason the block was added was so people don't have to be such mathematical geniuses to find a workaround for the block, although the workaround for trigonometry might be possible, who has time to program a scientific calculator into scratch. Same thing goes for the print() block, there might be a workaround but not many people know how to create a workaround for it. The print() block creates a solution for the workaround, it's convenient, less tedious and time efficient. plus it opens the door to more professional looking scratch projects.
