React won and those of us stuck on Angular 1 are mostly fucked. From that perspective, you'd have to be absolutely fucking insane to even consider Angular 2 after how badly the Angular team fucked up Angular 1 and all its users, leaving them in the dust. It's not about tech. Tech is irrelevant. I cannot trust this team to stand behind their software. Maybe that's because they build really shitty software. Fool me once and all that ... but IMO, you'd have to be a fool to use Angular 2+ after this fiasco.
