But its the lack of communication on your front that would make people fail your test, not their lack of competence.
Anyone can summon an obscure puzzle and claim its easy when they know the key.
isn't this a bit reductive?

Some interviewers get the fist. And that's just the way it goes.
If I'm supposed to play toady to this dog and pony show we're trying put on together, don't step in front of me with some condescending question, that we both know is cherry-picked trivia. You design questions to stump people, knock them off balance, introduce a choke, and project a facade of superiority, when we both know that's not fair play, and you expect something other than contempt?
I'm not reciting all the state capitals, every U.S. holiday on the calendar, and every county in the state of California for you. Try your luck with the next applicant.
You can't expect me to roll over as subordinate, when I'm looking right at you, and you and I both know that the canned question you just asked is total bullshit. Sorry, now I know you're a follower, not a leader, and I won't be led by you. Interview over.
And besides, do you really believe that passive aggression, as a personality trait, isn't a possibility, simply because it wasn't on display during that particular interview. Most smart people do have a passive aggressive mean streak, because it's a tactic, not a personality trait. It's in everyone's tool kit, and smart people use it in anger. If it gets used on you, especially when everyone in the room was trying to make a good first impression, maybe you did something to provoke that.
that seems like a false dichotomy. you behave as cruel and abusive as you do because it's within you to behave that way.

When you are into programming, like we are, you think of these things long before some big company tells you what to do.
That is my argument. It's simple logic. If I can get good results without React, I've proven that React is not necessary to get good results.
I have written huge, complex, graphics-intensive applications with Javascript, and that was not my experience at all. So maybe it's not the language, but the person using it that is responsible for the mess.
> It's similar to WinAPI. Sure, you can write C with WinAPI and it's enough for simple applications.
That is a very far-fetched comparison, in my view.
oh. it would seem this is more about you feeling impressed with yourself, rather than making substantive arguments.
Then we might not speak of the same React. Angular and Vue have very rich documentation which makes tutorial unnecessary.
React doesn't have that, so it's very likely "has to do" with React.
