I don't think that anybody believe that Angular/React/Whatever are fast. They may be fast relative to another framework but certainly not to a simple webpage that has almost no JS. The problem is mostly that most clients nowadays don't want a webpage, they want a web application. Something similar to what they have on their phone, computer, ... But JS is no C++ and so Angular cannot be Qt. I use to make Qt application, now I work has a webdev. I do really see how web app are slugish and tend to lag everywhere. But the thing is, for most client, they don't really mind. What they see is that they can access the app from all their computer, phone and tablet, and that matters a lot more for them. Plus, we will probably never come back to the era where most rendering was done server-side, it just cost too much.
