I think it's disingenuous to claim so stridently that it isn't a Chinese stack (not to mention the implicit assumption that Chinese code is not composed of high quality contributions). They're not saying that it was solely Chinese contributors who made it, just that the originators of Yii and Vue are Chinese. Yii and Vue can be considered "Chinese" in the same sense that American founders that come out of HAX Accelerator[0] in Shenzhen and operate primarily in China could still be considered to have created "American" products and companies.
