The jsx part is a bit of saying "X is better than Y because I like X!" but I see the rest of the article as more about why he thinks React+Redux are harder to use. A lot of it has to do with the number of things to learn and functional instead of OO. The last part is a belief held by many developers. I haven't tried Elm or Cycle in production but think our code would be much easier to work with if it were written in any of those that it is today with React. There might be other problems like stability and some special features we might miss or the learning period might be much longerthan I think but overall both alternatives looks better to me.
