Suppose you’re right.
Anyway, when moving between views there’s a small but noticeable “lag” on Android which is absent on iOS.
I suppose this is why people came up with features like “native scrolling” (Native Scrolling: Android Testers Wanted) and “native transitions” (Native View Transition Animations) primarily for Android.
These seem to be unnecessary on iOS (or are even unsupported, which doesn’t matter - you don’t need them).
These are more workarounds than fundamental solutions - issue remains that JS performance is inadequate.
