I would think that having to learn a little about iOS/Android would be a small price to pay for decent performance and accessibility. The idea that those are only sometimes important rather than a necessity is alien to me as a software developer and as a user.

I agree, accessibility is important and in many countries required by law. However using React Native Navigation can be quite a lot of work for a shop that only has JS dev's who've never done native. Using React Native Navigation (or any native dependency) also has implications for your CI system, debugging and over the air updates.

Also you can make an app that has no accessibility problems using React Navigation, you just need to be careful about scenarios where you might have a deep stack. I.e during signup or something that requires several screens on top of one another.

Here is a summary of the bug:

It's painful but possible to work around these issues using React Navigation.
