React is very good at what it's for, and much of this article is saying that React is not good at what it isn't for. That's a fair point to raise due to the ubiquity of the library, since many will reach for it out of habit or ignorance when it isn't appropriate, but it really doesn't amount to second guessing the modern web in my opinion. There are plenty of people still using Django and even things like Plone. They're just not in the zeitgeist, because those tools have practically congealed at this point and there isn't much reason to have a discourse about them.
