There's a remarkable irony isln that there is such a sizable vocal camp that feels like malleability & focus on good low-level primitives for the web (see: Extensible Web Manifesto) is the weakness, that it takes native tool build good experiences.
The lovely point here is that change keeps happening, is everywhere. The fancy good stuff today becomes a bad fit for what happens next, stops being a strength & becomes a limit.
What is so cherishable about the web, it's enduring quality, is that it's still a pretty good pretty flexible model. It's low level model, without a ton of opinions, that we can compose higher order systems out of. (Just by making some new elements, ideally, in many cases, although issues like front end data stores & routers sometimes/often end up as orthogonal concerns, not integrated into the document as a (tree) set of resources (elements). But they can be: react-router for ex shows using the page computation.
Flexibility & low-level capability arent the be-all, but the lack of commitment to specifics has allowed the web to keep going. The web as a system of opinions doesnt meed a lot to say for itself; the page is both structure, and, if we choose, the mechanism and machine too (again vsible in react-router, or works like Use.GPU's Live environment).
