Hey don't drag Node into this, you aren't forced to do any of that.
React to me feels like SPA developers discovering the idea of PHP and thinking they invented it. This shouldn't be surprising, since React came from Facebook, and Facebook historically is a PHP shop.
Mixing your business logic and presentation is a bad idea, but it's very attractive when you don't have the informative scars
You might say, doesn't Facebook have the scars to avoid designing React? Well, when you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail.
PS: I would suspect the down voting is just the "LOL", otherwise it's a fair comment.
