As a web developer that primarily codes in React for the last 5 years, I strongly disagree. I use it because of the ecosystem and I think everyone does. It's not that fast, and it's quite verbose. That's besides the point though, because I doubt Apple chose React because they "enjoyed" it here. I like web tech but I also think it's not worth it for this use case (even if it is shared with the web). What naturally happens is you start asking "well if we did it for that, why not for this?" Sooner or later it invades the system. I've worked on desktop apps where the same thing happened where webviews were not truly needed. I don't have a hate for it in general, but Apple was extremely strong in native UI so I would have liked to see them try to stick to that, even if it meant coding it twice.
