For one you don't have to write an arbitrary key={item.id}. What if you don't have a unique ID? And even if you do, it's just busywork.

Then, what about conditionals? Or slots? Or classNames instead of classes? The saving grace of JSX is that it allows the creation of multiple small components inside a single file.

That's definitely not the saving grace of JSX. As I said, every react project is soooooooo overly abstracted into the tiniest little components. It's no wonder people /think/ react is slow.
