Speaking of the long term. The thing is the flavor of over-engineering JavaScript suffers from - bringing in frameworks/tech the project can be done without is bound to backfire at some point when (and in a ridiculously fast moving ecosystem like js we're talking 1-2 years) you can't find engineers with the skillet needed for the the "old tech"-based projects.

That's why when it comes to javascript I don't use anything but bare JS and jQuery. There is too much churn in everything else.
