Is Facebook's intention with ReactNative to wholly replace native mobile development as we know it today?

Got it. Can you elaborate on your philosophy behind that thinking? (I assume there's more to it than just "we're a bunch of outstanding JavaScript devs with a ton of time on our hands." or "We dislike Obj-C, Swift and Java")

So far our framework was to prioritize what Facebook needed above all else. The reasoning behind this is that if we can't solve Facebook problems, no matter how much traction it receives externally, Facebook is going to stop throwing money at the project and it will be dead in 6 months.
This is a very realistic fear for us. Should it be?
Also ...
- Are you truly solving "Facebook" problems with RN?
- As an insider, what is your sense of how ReactNative has been received internally by Facebook?
- What other encouragement can you provide that RN will thrive unlike other "do-it-all" native solutions that don't seem to truly take off?

Have you received any feedback, positive or negative from Apple about the long-term viability of using the JavaScriptCore as a means of powering ReactNative? If so, would you be willing to share?
