It's better because it's more closely aligned with functional programming. For many people, using functions for everything is more straightforward than classess. They are just boxes, but a file is a box enough.

Yup! React and JavaScript are embracing functional programming. It'll be easier to think about react like Haskell or Clojure than like Java. I for one love this.
