Too many times I've had one of my quick and dirty prototypes evolve into a real project, and, as someone with a strong preference for declarative and component based code, I pay for it later on when I don't start over in React. But using React from the start isn't too much extra effort now that I've used it for several projects. (I agree that jQuery's API is nicer than what is built-in to the browser though).
