I think it's not so much short-term as goal oriented, and the goal is too narrowly defined to consider only the requirement to deliver to the spec. There's an assumption that everyone will learn React (or whatever) as needed, but my experience is that this doesn't happen and projects get orphaned. Development teams should be more realistic about this; I know they love using their toys but there's a real world out there that doesn't share that love. Better to compromise and produce something that has a future not dependent on skills that have only been around for a short time and for which there is no guarantee of continuity.
