That's a great point - that there are of course those who ride the cloud wave to milk their customers.
To get a sense of how much we're putting the cart before the horse, I recommend taking an occasional look at a subreddit frequented by webdev bootcampers (eg. [1] where they're hellbent to justify using React for static sites, because that's all they really know, and even accuse dissenters of being hiveminded).

- viraptor 7y agoI feel you're misrepresenting that discussion. Most people say they shouldn't use react, some propose react to generate static content before deployment, few raise good points for why you may want to use react even if the page is static right now. There's always going to be an extremist opinion somewhere, but it's really not common in the discussion you linked.
- tannhaeuser 7y agoMaybe I'm biased because I've been downvoted. IMO /u/webdev has become a React echo chamber if there ever was one; it's actually encouraging to hear that you've got a different impression.
