A fork may not be an option. Perhaps a given organization may not even be allowed to use React, if Facebook decides against it for some reason. Jurisdictions can differ as well.
In my opinion, the best thing would be if Facebook simply made the terms clear by using the Apache license or similar. But hey, it’s Facebook, so I’m not expecting much…
