As soon as I see the JSX critique I roll my eyes. This has been around since reacts inception and it just doesn't hold any water for me. I remember interviewing with a company in 2019 that was still on Angular 1 because they didn't like JSX, and didn't want to learn typescript. It just "looked yucky" to them.

Very very poor reasoning. I have never thought to myself, man I wish this wasn't JSX and just normal Javascript, to myself in the 6 or so years I've been using React. It just isn't something that anyone should care about and it shows the author has probably been biased against React forever, for no good reason.
