It's fine to hold that opinion, but in order to usefully contribute to this conversation you need to give a concrete reason why.

What do people think about "minutes per day" as a metric for success?
I think it represents a fundamental misalignment of goals between users and the company. By this metric, the more of your waking life that can be taken, the better.

You can use JSX to write your render functions in Vue [0]. It's opt-in as the Vue community views them as overkill in the usual case.
Personally, I appreciate having the intuitive approach for templating as the default for people who don't share my encyclopedic knowledge of web development. They can more easily follow along and contribute.

Bret Victor wrote a piece [0] lamenting the convergence on screens as the interaction design paradigm almost 7 years ago. Bret explains why screens are limiting interaction design through examples centered around the human body.
Ironically, this NYT piece gives the impression that a human being is a floating head and fingers i.e. an AR/VR avatar that they seem to loathe. I hope the future of computing isn't just the ability to check my calendar without a screen while walking. I want to use my body in tandem with computation. I don't have a Killer App for this interaction paradigm, but I found this paper by Scott Klemmer, Björn Hartmann, and Leila Takayama useful for thinking about it [1].
