"react devs" do not realize that that "Shadow DOM" are actually JS objects and "redux reducers" are actually plain functions.

I have a hard time with this sort of statement; seems like a difficult one to measure. I know lots of devs that are very aware that reducers are plain functions. I also know lots of devs that know precisely zero about the shadow DOM, because React means that they don't have to.

This means your company will develop its own methodologies and styles, which probably are not found anywhere else. The company and the devs will have to lose resources (devs will learn these, and cannot reuse that knowledge), lose-lose.

Absolutely agree with this - using libraries like React and Redux in my workplace have made it much easier to ensure all devs are on the same page, and most issues are pretty trivial to find answers about.
