This sounds like the complaints from a new developer that's frustrated over the layers of web dev.

React does a fantastic job working with common developer principles such as Don't Repeat Yourself, and Single Source of Truth.

Their points come across as overly vague and lack any true insights into development besides initial impressions.

For a static page it doesn't make sense to use React, obviously. For a highly interactive page it, or another framework is critical to clean, manageable code.
