Yeah, because I'm not trying to convince you of anything. It's a tool in your toolbox, use it when you think it's advantageous, otherwise use your other tools. I couldn't care less of what you chose to do or how you "sell this to teams". I'm a developer who simply chooses the best tool for the job, sometimes that's Statecharts and sometimes it's something else. Also don't have any idea about what ideas are circling around in "Academia" as I'm far away from that ecosystem and only focus on shipping working products.

If you're looking for something "easy" in particular, then whatever you don't know is gonna be hard. Such is the life of a developer, where sometimes the simpler way is harder but worth it in the end. React was hard for people to grok in the beginning as well, but that doesn't mean it's bad, it just means people are not familiar with it. If you're just looking for easy solutions then yeah, feel free to stop improving and continue use the stuff you already know or is familiar to you.

So in the end, do what you will with the knowledge and experience I've shared with you, I have zero interest in selling you anything and I'm simply discussing stuff here on HN as I'm curious about things and want to have discussions with people who are also curious about things, but this discussion stopped being productive a long time ago.
