It's quite an unfortunate coincidence that React has indirectly been the reason for two recent issues at Cloudflare haha
Two's a coincidence, three's a pattern; I guess we will have to wait until next month to see if it becomes a pattern. Was there a particular aspect of the React Server Components that made it easy to have this problem appear? would it have been caught or avoided in another framework or language?
