It makes integration with existing code trivial. Vue's HTML templates can be neatly integrated into pretty much anything without a struggle compared to tools that make assumptions about your build chain and what you are working with. To use Vue, you could include it with a <script> tag and suddenly your existing HTML can be rapidly extended. Or you could get way more involved and use webpack, JSX and such if you wanted to. To not have HTML templates means you need to do something more invasive to retrofit client-side templating into place. It's personally why I don't bother with libraries that don't offer similar, because I don't always have total control over what I am working on and I still need to get work done.
