Is not about React, it is about tools that makes our life easier. If you want you can stick to ES5, no frameworks, no tools but good luck scaling your app to work with a big teams.
Yea, as a user of CRNA (create react native app) with a moderately simple app, dependency hell is something we're already in. We don't see a choice, for reasons, but CNRA is definitely not somehow above these problems.
Node/JS in general has a pretty terrible track record for me with version hell.
Strong technical leadership and defining clear code boundaries is the secret sauce to scaling successfully. The shiniest tooling will not save your team.
