WordPress 6.1.1 comes with React 17 but @wordpress/element requires React 18

Hi! I have a clean install of WordPress 6.1.1 where I want to use Gutenberg blocks with React and I’ve noticed it comes with React 17.
https://prnt.sc/bVKB5VlSle5O
In the network tab I can see it loads React 17.0.1

I can’t use React hooks like useState from @wordpress/element because it throws this error https://reactjs.org/docs/error-decoder.html/?invariant=321
After some digging I found out it requires React 18.2.0

I’ve also tried debugging by using the methods from Duplicate React and indeed it prints false: https://reactjs.org/warnings/invalid-hook-call-warning.html

npm ls react shows this:

So…I really don’t know what’s going on, any help would be appreciated, thank you!
