While static sites can offer better performance and security in theory, they don't always do in practice.
My Drupal-powered site, https://dri.es/, is fast and secure. In fact, it is 3x faster than https://gohugo.io/ and https://jekyllrb.com/ -- the official websites of two leading static site generators.
The speed and performance of a website depends more on the quality of the generated HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code than the underlying technology used (e.g. CMS vs SSG).
Drupal allows you to use various input formats, such as Markdown. So, if you prefer using Markdown, you can easily use it in Drupal.
Drupal has a module called Tome (https://youtu.be/uqmq5FBP_T0) that enables it to generate static sites. Moreover, Drupal is frequently used as the content repository/backend for Gastby (https://www.drupal.org/project/gatsby), NextJS sites (https://next-drupal.org/) and others. Check it out!
