This is the premature optimization our industry suffers from.

If/when you get a few million users, then you worry about scaling your backend with microservices, crazy DBs, serverless, whatever. Until then (vast majority of business), LAMP is fine.

If/when you need 20 checkboxes/drop-downs (again, there are very few situations where this is reasonable to the user, the mental load is non-trivial, consider splitting the view and adding a “next step” or something) than you consider a framework devised to render the whole of Facebook, a site with way more views and features than the most sites would ever dream of.
