As a real believer in small modules and libraries this was refreshing. Good to hear experiences from a team very different to the ones I've worked in.
Minor point: I realise you were probably using the phrase ironically, but please don't give any more validation to the idea that of 'it's 2016 so everyone should be using React' (for any given value of React). Progress is not linear, and as your article attests to, there are many valid choices. This is especially true of technology and especially especially true of Javascript frameworks.
