Is this much different from selecting a particular vendor deployment stack, such as react native, or a particular GUI toolkit such as Qt?

So.. now I don't just have to know C++ I have to know C++/Qt, or not just JavaScript but JavaScript/React?

Yes. Because React has documentation and in-house Lisp almost never does

Qt and React have been used for years by lots of people, so there's a lot of knowledge out there about them, their designs are more general-purpose and refined, and you're likely to have encountered them before.
