The actual root causes are economic but there's a psychological feedback loop at play as well. I lived in Germany for a few years and got culture shocked when I attended a 40th birthday and realised that I was the only parent in attendance. When society gets itself into a situation where not having kids is that normalised, it gets fairly easy to validate the choice not to have one.
Re:Vue vs React: Best Choice for Startups on Wednesday November 18, 2020 @05:47PM (#25143602)
Over the span of 5 years, I wrote and maintained a react application that grew to about 100k LOC. I migrated it over time from createClass to classes to functional components, from JavaScript (w PropTypes) to Flow to TypeScript, from webpack to RCA, from flux to redux. I feel that in these comparisons what tends to be missing is what options each framework present when your code base reaches a size when the current structure becomes a burden. React fairly easily allowed gradual improvements, adding typing without needing a massive rewrite, codemods, RCA, etc.

Whenever I've looked at Vue, I can't help but get the feeling that you're likely stuck with what you started with. When I look at a Vue component vs it's TypeScript equivalent, I can't say I see a trivial upgrade path.
