Nobody, and i mean nobody, needs to start a new project in the '20s using React. It's legacy tech, built for IE 6/7/8, and its entire ecosystem starts from the premise that we must (in theory) remain compatible with those browsers -- largely though slow and expensive transpilers.

You know who doesn't target *any* version of IE in new projects in 2023? MICROSOFT. Unsupported, full stop.

Starting from those legacy assumptions is like designing computers with only newtonian physics.
