And React. Using divs for buttons has absolutely nothing to do with whether you're using HTMX, React, or just plain Javascript.

Maybe they're a younger developer and weren't around pre-React, but the idea that using a div instead of a button for a clickable element is somehow new or only pertinent if you're using a framework makes me think the author is confused about these things work.
