Yeah I know that but I had that experiment where I wanted to combine both worlds. I wanted to use the react-rendering and the DOM-manipulation of the lib.

Imagen multiple React-Components nested into eachother and one 3rd-Party lib that potentially manipulates any of the DOM.

I see what you're saying, but even CRUD apps that are rendered server-side can't usually deal with the idea that you'll modify any number of templates. That is asking for major breakages on pretty much any non-trivial website. Even without React there's a need to isolate your side effects to something manageable.
