> If the industry continues its current focus on maintainability and developer experience, we’ll end up in a world where the web is built by LLMs using React and a handful of libraries entrenched in the training data. Framework innovation stagnates. Platform innovation focuses elsewhere. React becomes infrastructure—invisible and unchangeable.

So I guess I'm in agreement with the author: let's actively work to make that not happen.

Agreed. I've been using React as the front-end for a few years now and while I enjoy it, I really, really don't want React to be the only option.
