They're right when it makes business sense, which is also about cost and why Shopify didn't do it before.

I'm not arguing the business sense. Two sides can be right which is why I advocated for native development. Which is vindicated here.

If you weren't arguing against the business case, what were you arguing with the C-level types about? I don't think I have ever heard a case for react that wasn't centered around shared codebases mean fewer resources/cost/time to deliver a feature.
