After working with React for some tine I'm not so sure the good old Mvc is a bad thing, not always at least.

That line stuck out for me too.

Is MVC as a pattern really all that bad for the majority of web apps?

I think it depends on what kind of code mess you prefer - client side or backend. I personally prefer to mess up on the backend, feels much more comfortable to me to fix it up and write tests.
