With respect to Flux/Redux, the Facebook team even stressed when they originally released Flux that it should be used sparingly. It is useful in some circumstances, particularly that which it was originally designed for, but it seems in my experience that it often used, unnecessarily, as a stand in for a controller (in MVC terms) layer. When React was originally released it was sold only as a view layer that you plug into your application stack. Since no official way of approaching the rest of the stack emerged from Facebook, when Flux was announced it seems that it was taken as the rest of the stack by many.
