Using the Web Platform and using React are not opposites, you can do both. See: Remix as a framework that bakes in these ideas, but using the platform is easily achievable yourself too.

Making this distinction between HTML <form>s and React shows a clear misunderstanding of the programming model that React provides. It targets the platform in a native way. This is how React DOM, React Native, and libraries like Ink[1] work.

Maybe, but I've never (as in not even once) seen a React "app" that didn't try to re-implement the web platform and didn't fail on many user-facing metrics.
