This just means that complex projects exists. Complexity refers to the domain or business problem that needs to be solved and software complexity is a consequence of that. If you can anticipate a certain level of complexity by various factors, then you are better off with React/Vue/Whatever.js that makes your life easier.
uness you're solving something complex...
