You have to realize though that as developers we invest a lot of time on learning a technology. Companies invest a lot of money into stacks. It's not always easy to find developers and if your stack is "standard", it makes it easier to both grow your team and get up to speed with the code.
For a developer, company, or team, 23KB of JavaScript aren't going to be a very good incentive to ignore the advantages that come with using a standard framework like Vue. Websites are easily 10MB in size nowadays, 23KB are a drop in the ocean. I can optimize the logo and get 23KB without have my team learn a whole new framework.
What I'm trying to say is that I don't think "smaller Vue alternative" is a good selling point. If anything, because as your framework gains acceptance people will want more features, and it will inevitably grow, and there goes your competitive advantage.
It should do something better, or differently in a big way or a way people care about.
Just my two cents. I've never created anything that a huge number of people use, so I'm no institution in this area.

If I'm starting a new project and someone suggests doing it in Vue, and I have to learn it all anyway, I might consider this as an alternative.
