The core message is solid, that knowing how to build systems without frameworks is must have. However you must know popular frameworks or you won't pass interviews. I had some absurd experiences due to not having Angular experience (false), I couldn't even reach the technical interview, since HR somehow decided I'm unqualified :)

I would rephrase the message as Stop relying on frameworks for your careers sake.

Or Stop relying on HR people for your careers sake

Hint: there are technically better ways to get into company. In my last six jobs/gigs I talked to target team/management guys first. HR was only there to complete the paperwork.

I agree to this .. I have around 8 years of experience now and have built teams and products .. In one application I was sent a list of 4/5 frameworks and actually have to reply with yes/no in front of each .. based on which they will 'decide' further ..
