> Vue can be used just like jQuery without any nodejs tooling
You can, but you probably shouldn’t (outside of prototyping). It requires you to both ship the template compiler to the client, and to perform the template compilation on the client, on every single page load (vs serving a cached, pre-compiled JS file).
If you want to sprinkle JS onto an otherwise server rendered page, you’re better off with something like Alpine.js [1]

> I'm rather convinced at this point that all of these people chanting "Can we just go back to traditional approaches!" have never built a web app of reasonable complexity, never used something like React, or have some sort of combination of FOMO and/or comfort in their long-held approach.
I've got plenty of React & front-end experience and vastly prefer a thin library on top of the DOM than something like React, also for large applications. React is ok if all goes well, but when you have to debug or profile something, all the complexity behind the scenes occludes what you are looking for. Most of the time, people want JSX so you need a transpiler. Also keeping up with changes in new React releases seems like a lot of lost time.
I've been building [1] without a transpiler and just a 600 lines template library (see [2]), and it has been such a breath of fresh air. The fact that there is so little code between you and the browser makes it very easy to see what is going on. Call stacks of max around 15 frames.
It sounds like you are comparing React to jquery code without components, and I justed wanted to highlight that DOM APIs have evolved since those days, and that you don't need a library like React to structure your code.
React has popularized good ideas in front-end development, like components, but I think the complexity cost of a virtual DOM is often underestimated.
