Agreed! I know it can be so so overwhelming, but just hang in there. We have had these problems with the web from the very early days of JavaScript, but we have only reached an inflection point in the past 5-ish years where we have solved these problems. So these new and successful JavaScript abstractions/frameworks/layers/patterns are here to stay.
And yes, things like React, Redux, Flux, Backbone (if people still use that) etc etc etc are based in some solid grounding CS and technology architecture principles. Let the burden of engineering load not get mixed up with your ability to embrace and understand application of the fundamentals that underlie here.
I complained about something similar about a year ago, and the Facebook guys told me they felt the pain, but said that the investment would pay off, and it already has in the shortest amount of time. Just. hang. in. there.
