I think WebComponents are just the UI part of the web apps and they are more comparable to React than any framework. We will still need to have libraries for other SPA needs such as routing etc just like React.

Plus lets imagine we all start using WebComponents, we will need to put reusable components in some libraries. Eventually we will end up with lots of proprietary libraries or people will start building open source WebComponents UI libraries and we will be back at the same issue you are trying to resolve.

In fact at the moment there are many open source WebComponents packages avaliable. If you think people will agree on one package and they will start developing that instead of creating a new, I believe it will not going happen. Have a look at this blog.bitsrc.io/9-web-component-ui-...

Although I agree with the issue you are trying to solve and I am not in favour of many frameworks myself unless they are necessary. Mainly because of the fragmentation reason and also I want to have more control over what I am building. We should also learn how to create things and not just how to use things which other people have created.
