The reductio ad nausium of it is always fear versus measures. People who fear (fill in the blank reason) require outside parties to solve basic problems for them. This is the reason people use frameworks, because its this big thing somebody else wrote that does things you don't want to consider. If, on the other hand, your primary consideration is to achieve some manner of a measure you won't care what tool you use, if any, because its all arbitrary. The deciding factor is not your self-interested level of comfort but a numeric quality compared to some other numeric quality. This is why I abandoned my 15 year JavaScript career. Its full of cowardly people who cannot measure anything because, even when they are so capable, measuring things may reveal uncomfortable and highly contrary conclusions.
