This so much, automatic "data struture state -> visual state" without manual synchronization code to update the visual state is the main reason why frameworks are useful, not for components.

BUT, these frameworks are most useful for actual "applications". So much of web development is "merely" focused on making beautiful "pages", and a framework can very well be overkill in those scenarios.

People "going back to basics" really need to learn to evaluate when what you are doing (or how much) falls into each camp.
