I think that's a little pessimistic (and a shade condescending?). You can easily call yourself a React Engineer today, for one interview, and be a frontend specialist for the next. If your company is using a stack, why wouldn't you hire people that actually like to work with it and know its quirks? As someone who mostly does Java infrastructure work, sure anyone can learn Java. It's the easiest. But there's plenty of room to bring value with experience and specialization if you want. I just hope no one feels forced into it because of market forces.
