I have had to do a lot of React lately. I think there is also some arguments to be made about how much you use it. For example there is a tendency to break everything down into micro components which gets excessive. I think the functional and stateless dogma leads often to heavy to execute and unreadable code.... which is funny because that is exactly what React wants to solve.

I think this is also a problem that is not React specific. This problem will occur in every project that grows large enough.

For sure! I have seen this in other languages and with all sorts of frameworks over the years. It is very tempting as a developer to look at any DX improvement as an improvement for the universe.
