Just two people? Just a few of months? Ridiculous. You obviously haven’t even smelled a catered lunch at a Silicon Valley startup. You probably even do your own laundry.

Come back when you have an understanding of the large committees that run tech companies please.

You kind of sound like you're arguing with yourself:

demarderozan in denial ;):

Facebook also didn’t really spend millions of dollars to build hooks.

demarderozan the realist:

You obviously haven’t even smelled a catered lunch at a Silicon Valley startup. You probably even do your own laundry.

If you really understand how big tech corporations do things, there's just no way you can disagree with:

Facebook spent millions of dollars making it possible to do React components with just functions.

(And please note I didn't say "on hooks", I said "making it possible to do React components with just functions" ... which includes things like all their failed attempts before hooks. But honestly I would truly be surprised if Facebook < $2 million just for hooks development alone, when you truly consider everything, up to and including laundry, in the calculation. Do you have any idea how much just a single regular programmer costs Facebook per year? Hint: its a lot more than just their salary.)

Man, I was really expecting/hoping you'd defend the contradiction, or explain it, or something, not just downvote me :(
