Sounds like these apps are built with security and portability in mind ;). Seriously, though, this seems like an implementation issue that can/will improve over time. I can see the case where, yeah, if your users care about what your stack looks like and they refuse to use Electron apps, then sure, use something else (same goes if your users are laptop-heavy users with concerns about battery life). Some devs don't have those constraints and that's where Electron can fit in.
