Agreed, but when you have this many “don’t do what Donny Don’t does”, that may be a smell. I use React a lot and like it, but I do feel that way sometimes. I like that these docs are at least prescriptive and tell you what you should do instead.

Interesting, most of your comments are dead, I just vouched for this one.
Anyway, yeah it might be a code smell if everyone is using them wrong, but I'm not sure how the React team could fix it, at least without breaking changes or moving to some other paradigm.

At least part of the “wrong” use is the recommended best practice has evolved over time, so following the recent recommendations would be “wrong” by the current recommendation.
