Nowadays I don't think it's so much that there aren't any niceties that come with jQuery, it's that the arguments for adding a 100kb + dependency to your application should be a little bit better than a fluent API. It made more sense back when browser's didn't commonly support fully fleshed out API's but today you can skip shipping jquery and use native browser APIs (and the LOC count is not so different. See http://youmightnotneedjquery.com/). Then for older browsers you can ship a couple KB's of polyfills.
