This is honestly the direction I see us going. Angular has also created a component concept nearly identical to React, the only difference is implementation details. It's a natural way to go, because it decreases cognitive load. I am intrigued and ponder the idea of there being "JS Standard Libs" and wonder which ones will initially get picked for the honor. I don't think it will be React or Angular but definitely "something" like them, even if it is a version of Web Components. That'll also mark a huge change in performance and download metrics, because if your browser already has your framework built in, your delivered code base is suddenly a fraction of what it was. And then there will be more opportunities there, too - dynamically providing the framework where needed in a separate code split, vs. a browser that does not need it. We're just at the beginning, really. Browsers stalled for 15 years and have shifted into a period of innovation again.
