Reactive is a mistake. It's a tool for a specific job, sure, but it's too big and opinionated of an abstraction to use it everywhere. The future of programming should be reality based.

There's never going to be one "solution" here. There will always be tradeoffs depending on the constraints of a given domain or problem space. One-size-fits-all solutions end up not being great for anything, since they have to make so many compromises.
Also great tools are made through solving real problems. If we just went to plato's heaven and dreamed up a "perfect" programming environment, we would end up with something which solves our problems in theory. But the issue with this is that our problems don't exist in theory, they exist in reality.
