    Search engines don’t use CMS type as a ranking factor but a CMS will impact your rankings if it makes content difficult to upload or they contribute to server errors (5xx codes) for whatever reason.

    I would with go with the clients wishes here. Personally I like the headless CMS’s as lot of the companies we work with are either growing or changing a lot due to funding rounds, pivots etc.
