The American dev you may have impacted has probably been automating away someone else’s job(s) for years. This is just how business works and I wouldn’t feel bad about it at all. Qualified people will land on their feet.

They are actually adding in LAN modes (standard and developer) with these changes so I'm not sure what you're talking about with them cutting out local network access. Neither will require auth.

Well yeah if you're not using LAN you're using WAN which means internet. But the option is there to use either one if you want, or even just put a physical SD card into the printer directly if you want, no network needed at all t

FWIW, create-react-app is overloaded with every package you could ever potentially want to use for some weird reason. It's way overkill and I wouldn't recommend using it. It's much better just to use Vite with React as a plu
