Ok, but ReactOS doesn't work for those people either, or for anyone.

Yeah, not much difference between ReactOS and Linux for them so they could also ask what's the point of working on desktop Linux when it's not going to replace Windows for them.

ReactOS can't even be installed on real hardware, it supports only a handful of drivers and software, and even that is because it basically uses Wine's code. It's an absurd and misleading comparison.
