Closes #107.

What

  • A Why react-call? section just before Getting started.
  • /why added to the header links and the Contents list.

Why

The thread on #107 has the diagnosis in it. @fikrikarim asked for the comparison, @waken22 pointed at the /why page, and the reply was "I didn't see that. I only read the repo."

The README never links to /why, not once in 545 lines. The page is orphaned from the repo, so the argument only reaches people who already found the site. It is also absent from the npm page, which is where a lot of first contact happens.

So this does both halves: the section itself, and the link, so the page stops being invisible from here.

Approach

Condensed, not rewritten. The prose is your /why page tightened up, the two code samples are copied verbatim, and I have not invented any new arguments. It closes with a note pointing at /why for the full version.

The code samples are stacked vertically rather than side by side: a two column table with fenced code renders reliably on GitHub but not on npm, and npm is exactly the surface where this content is missing.

Scoped to the README. Your other point about improving the /why section itself is its own PR, happy to take that afterwards if you still want it.

No changeset: docs only, nothing published changes.
