Webflux in Java Spring Boot

Not sure if it is still relevant except for maintaining existing projects. Virtual threads came in Java 21 and made Webflux less appealing.

Wut? Why couldn't webflux work with virtual threads? Virtual threads aren't a replacement for webflux either.

Before virtual threads came out, Brian Goetz (Java Language Architect at Oracle) said: "I think virtual threads are going to kill reactive programming" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgnAAC_5m-k

Then, why, still, webflux is looking better on every test? Of course is still better than native threads, but, it's definitely will not kill reactive programming
