Nobody in the world is arguing against the fact that CRA is overkill for a Hello World application.

Luckily, that’s not it’s target space.

If you engineer frontend applications of even moderate complexity, you will eventually start to pull in tooling + dependencies + configuration to handle real world use cases. Eventually? You end up with a once-off, home-grown variant of... what CRA emits anyway.
