> We keeping asking more of it and stuffing more and more complexity into react so that monolithic frameworks can be built with it. It was never designed with that goal in mind and is taking more and more complex features to try to keep that ship afloat.
The trouble with a smash-hit library (or, let's be real at this point: framework) is that adding more whizz-bang features to it becomes irresistible, from a résumé-building perspective. Add in that a bunch of the devs are paid very good money to work on it, and they really do have a lot of incentives to keep finding more shit to add to it, rather than calling it "done" and letting it enter maintenance mode.
