I think one of the 'problems' of React is that the problem it solves is not "how do I easily build a web app?" So, any tutorial that shows how to easily build a web app using React makes it look much more difficult than building a web app has to be. The problem React solves is "How do I sensibly organize a large complex web application?" If you don't already have that problem, learning React can feel like you are learning how to build a transit system when all you really want to do is walk down to the corner store.
