That particular argument doesn't make a case of React or Vue's approach being particularly better than the other.
In the author's conclusion he states, "JSX isn’t revolutionary. It’s evolutionary. Like most forms of evolution, it’s a clear improvement."
I will concede the author's point that React & JSX are better than the jQuery spaghetti that came before and is therefore an improvement. As the comparison here is to that of evolution which is superior the shark or the tiger? With evolution many things will evolve out of those things that came before and the strong will survive. Vue and React are both evolutions of what came before; time will tell which, if either, survives.
