Well i'm not that sure... Angular is highly verbose, so you'll have to maintain a larger codebase. Besides, the heaviness of angular come with a cost when you have to update your dependencies every 6 months (even if it's adds consistent in dependency management). And have you include the cost of migrating from AngularJS to Angular2 when Google guys decided to break compatibility?

That would be an argument for legacy code bases, not for decisions related to starting out a new project - However, yes, that was a nightmare ... :/
