If you're trying to build an entire app, you are not building a library. An app uses libraries and frameworks to stitch them together. A library brings functions, and a framework brings connectivity and logical flows. An app without a framework is an app with a hidden framework. An app without libraries is an app with a hidden framework and monolithic, catch-all, single-purpose library.

So then turn the question on its head. What are the examples of frameworks that should have been libraries?

It’s not that I disagree with you, necessarily. I’m just trying to extract a more specific claim from this post.
