Correction: React/Web technlogy is responsible for all the UI, from the loading screens to in-game labels when using road tools and everything in-between.

And their implementation of Coherent Gameface is not the reason for the performance issues in the game, so not sure how it's even relevant.

I think parent meant to imply there is a similarly wasteful culture in frontend development so of course they'd use react for menus and labels.
