Kind of what is going on with Node / Deno... and like the chap who quit the Angular 2 team to start Aurelia hoped would happen to him (sorry buddy!). My guess is that he'll find out that there is more to a framework than rockstar developers. Like Facebook backing, or like UX designers being in love with your library because it reflects their approach to problem solving. Like CRA, hot module reloading and all that jazz. These are all things that put React where it is today
