I think sadly to that point there’s no solution given because there isn’t one. And the ones that promise it (RN) still has you doing tons of platform specific code and in some cases supporting even more platforms than just going native.

I've been at orgs that wrote 3x apps and at orgs that shipped via RN. RN was a significantly superior choice ime. While yes, it wasn't 100% write once, it was pretty good and also avoided some of the ugly single-platform-only bugs I experienced at choice one, eg in core data libs (subtly different validations on data), that made the write 3 apps strategy be more like 4x work.

As for the article, honesty probably would have just had the author write something like: "RN: an unfortunate but maybe your best choice in these circumstances" instead of pretending there's serious alternatives eg the Apache garbage dump.
