Dart + "Unfortunately, due to iOS restrictions, updating your Flutter app over the network is not possible" means 100% no thanks from me.

I don't want another language in my build ecosystem. Between javascript (necessary for web), objective-C, Java, C++ for shared stuff, adding another one that provides no genuinely useful semantics or performance implications is a sheer non-starter.

Indeed. One of _the_ biggest selling points of React Native is the promise of near-instant over-the-air updates for iOS and Android.
