Polymer while I used to like it more isn't better than Web Components and for me was harder to use than both React and Web Components. React offers up more than both Polymer and Web Components spec. With web components it's still just a glop of JavaScript in a file. So I don't quite see the benefit of being "closer to the metal" when you are not closer to the metal. The community simply hasn't embraced Polymer. React is easy for me to understand and I can use it today and Web Components aren't really a necessity at that point nor are they even supported in browsers yet.
