There are plenty of roles which don't require React. In fact, this is the problem with the web dev industry at the moment. Everyone is looking for React or Vue or whatever developers. Have companies stopped looking for Developers who have solid grip of Javascript who can pick up any framework ? I would hope No. I personally use VueJS and love it but if I am hiring for a front end role, I would like to first understand if you can write Javascript. I don't care which framework or library.

I think though with any framework, there is a base amount of knowledge of the best practices, how things work etc. that just being able to write JS wouldn't really help you with

That's just a symptom of the commoditisation that developers themselves have been so happily furthering for quite some time by identifying as a set of TLAs rather than as business / automation / efficiency problem solvers. "React", "Vue", "Whatever developer" in that case is just a further specialisation from "JavaScript developer". It's not fundamentally different, though.
