> React is a child of the Flux architecture philosophy

FWIW, this isn't actually the case.

React was first announced in 2013:

The "Flux Architecture" was first announced a year later, in 2014:

React's original influences were things like Facebook's internal PHP-based UI definition layers:

MVC examples in this article do not represent MVC in Cocoa. E.g. last time I checked cocoa tables were bound to array controllers, which controlled filtering, available actions etc. Not to bare models. Older-style cocoa mvc rendering was also based on the view<->controller connection, which may act as a “store” or do something more sophisticated, depending on what you write in delegate methods. These comparison graphs always involve some “head & shoulders” vs “grey regular shampoo” style narrative.

Well yes: Apple MVC also isn't really MVC. See:

https://blog.metaobject.com/2015/04/model-widget-controller-...

However, sufficiently MVC for the purposes of the post.

The article points at issues with “regular MVC” which do not exist in Cocoa way of doing it. So no, not sufficiently.

None of my articles points at issues with "regular MVC"
