As an elder developer... yea, we could use react to render complex web pages that erode expected functionality.
Or, like, I'm happy to just go back to server-side rendering... it's surprisingly cheap to build and dead fucking simple.
Elder developer here too, correctly making my SPAs has made my work significantly more efficient and maintainable now that my back end is basically a rest api and my front end requires very little network interaction after the initial load, which has been made pretty minimal.
I too have been doing this for years and I whole hearty agree with this comment.
For large complex sites, I ain't never going back.
Actually even for simple sites I'm not sure I'll go back.
If I ever have to do this again, I’ll scream.
