Did you try using nodemon?
The problem with npm start is that the entire playback feature was designed to keep the same full-static strategy the previous playback had. So there's no need to keep a running node process for this feature.
But I understand your frustration. I guess we could even resurrect the old create-react-app scripts for a dev-mode or so.
