React is frequently mentioned in the same breath as Angular/Vue/etc. Angular, for example, has most of what you'd want to build a complex web app built. Compared to that, React is not "complete" because if you wanted to build a complex web app you'd need to start using outside libraries or writing a great deal of code yourself.
I agree this does not mean React is "incomplete." It does what it sets out to do very well. But the discussion is often framed as React vs Vue vs Angular, fair or not.
