Yes I'm bitter that the same errors we made with desktop apps in the 90's (and possibly earlier) are being repeated.

Yes. The biggest difference is the amount of postbacks, the state handling has moved client side.

But are they really the same... a common prescription for state management with react is to use something like flux or redux. State management solutions that have worked out well for gaming platforms to this day. Not the MVC patterns that bring a lot of complexities that make cross cutting concerns that much more difficult.

This is emphatically NOT the same as the desktop apps in the 90's.
