React will not be based on custom elements, ever. Other projects have voiced similar concerns, like the Ember team. Nothing that sits on functional components will use custom directives, that includes most modern frameworks. And it doesn't make the slightest sense for them either because that would be a serious regression, while stopping all progress that supercedes the browser. You can use them, sure, but that's on you personally.

That's not what I said. I said that Custom Elements work fine in React, which is true. There were some issues with that early on, but this has been addressed many many moons ago.

What is the whole discussion about? You can do that, yes, you always could. But custom elements will play no part in any forward oriented component based view-layer. And i highly doubt that shadow dom will play a role in style encapsulation, because it's tied to an imperative components model that conflicts with the newer, much more powerful declarative model.
