Reacting to React's use()

Years ago, I used to work as a tech blogger covering iOS how-tos for the iPhone 4 series. Apple iOS was a very restrictive system unlike Android, and the only way you could customize your iPhone beyond the limited native options was to "jailbreak" the phone, install something like Cydia (a marketplace for apps that can only be installed on a jailbroken iPhone), and download the apps that made it possible to customize the phone. You couldn't even customize the notification sheet, or the status bar on a normal iPhone. But once jailbroken, almost everything was possible. The most weird bit was this: many of the customizations that jailbreaking offered would eventually be supported natively by Apple. It wasn't just the Android folks that would make fun of Apple because it was so late to the party and yet making it sound like it was so innovative. The jailbreaking community too made fun of Apple for the very same reason. That is precisely how I feel about use(). The idea goes by many names…
