this is a common sentiment in these anti-modern-FE threads. it's a problem of imagination; i build internal tools for a large company you've definitely heard of. my org is several thousand people. we absolutely need to use react for the complex internal 2d/3d combo applications we build for debugging our next-gen products. given all the different platforms we need to support and the realtime nature of these incredibly complex tools, we _must_ build them for the web; we tried native applications and it does not scale.

many applications are much more complex than some simple forms.
