Those are part of React, not JSX itself. Compare Vue's use of JSX, for example, which just uses `class` and `for` instead of `className` and `htmlFor`.

React just went for JS naming of the attributes instead of html naming of the attributes. Reasonable, if annoying, choice.

False, for a lot of attributes you have to use the HTML naming of the attributes, so is not consistent, for example to use aria-label you have to write it exactly like that (not ariaLabel as when using JS)

aria-* and data-* apparently are the exception
