React was released 11 years ago and is the de facto default choice for most of the web applications.

They have definitely chilled out on "reinventing the wheel" quite a few years ago.

No? React reinvents itself constantly. I've worked on React websites and am currently working on a React Native app. React was first classes-based, now there's functions, hooks and it will soon get a compiler. Not to mention that they nudge you to use Next.js (and Expo for RN) now. Svelte did the same with the switch to these god awful Runes. Not to mention a lot of libraries that constantly get deprecated or don't work anymore with React 19.
