> I’m pretty sure the mismatch is just that the major ui frameworks were designed for oop languages, not that UI is inherently oo

I’m pretty sure you are right. It seems to me that both FRP and ECS models of UI are at least as good as OO models, and a lot more adaptable to Rust than conventional OO models. But GUIs and OOP grew up together and have been deeply wedded, so non-OO UI just isn’t how people are used to thinking, for the most part.
