Not only C, I've had experiences with real time applications in Angular and React pushing like 100 updates a second and it's really easy to fuck something up that will trigger change detection and subsequent calls to death and create a scenario like that.
How often is something is simplified with reactivity? Who though the web needs reactivity? When I go to the steam page of a game there's no more than one thing which needs to react to my action. When I hover over a game a new div should appear and nothing else needs to react to it. I clearly don't get it
It depends on the type of application and size. For your typical business app / backoffice with tons of fields on the same page and real time data reactivity makes sense, otherwise it doesn’t.
