I keep seeing this line of reasoning that ClojureScript/Reagent somehow slipped behind React because of "hooks" and "form" (form is a new complaint actually, haven't heard before), but I'm failing to understand what hooks could give us in Reagent-land that we don't already have?

With that said, you can still use React hooks via Reagent if you want to, it's described over here: https://github.com/reagent-project/reagent/blob/master/doc/R...

Aren't hooks default in reagent now? Or at least, wasn't there a move in that direction a few months back?

Personally, I use reagent (with re-frame) and the only times I need to do JS interop is when using JS libraries (which shadow-cljs has made easy -- I know that Clojurescript has better support now too, but I've not used it because I was already a shadow-cljs user).
