I cannot say why they went the route they did.

Regarding .NET work - I moved mostly away from Access myself a number of years ago into C# (winforms, WPF and ASP.NET), and since then have expanded into enterprise application development, mobile dev, react/vue/angular frontend, BI, etc.

Often, when I start becoming "good" at some technical platform or product, I have to fight the urge to start trying to use it for everything, even if it doesn't make sense, or there is something safer available for my company. Human nature.

I had a quick 5 minute look at a React beginners tutorial today. I hear its all the rage nowadays.

The name certainly has a late-generation appeal. Give it a year.

I find people want to use "high tech" and "new stuff" just because it is "better" or "newer", mostly the latter.
However nothing beats a good old excel sheet or a quick access db for a nice steady fast and cheap working solution.
