Even if one is using react, I think there's value in choosing libraries that are not deeply tied to react such that that logic can be reused when (not if) we need to start migrating away from it.

The problem is non-react chart libraries can be a bit cumbersome to use in React. For example, D3 controls the DOM itself through various transformations. React is not aware of these updates and combining react's state based DOM manipulation with random updates from a charting library gets messy.
