The huge component ecosystem.
Entire companies built around it.

All we can do is truck along at this point; stuck with React because of the mass of the dependencies.

This is one of the core reasons it's hard to do right and prone to a specific class of bugs that rarely -- if ever -- show up in other frameworks as you constantly have to be aware of opting out, even in what seems like normal JavaScript.
