Honestly mate, you're just talking about the same old, same old.

Every framework is about componentization and encapsulation.

You could take React out of your post and replace it with any framework name in the last 40 years and it would have made 'sense' at the time.

Like the author said, right now a veteran looks at react and sees the mistakes of 15 years ago when we mixed code and presentation.
