Because eventually you end up rewriting a more brittle version of an established framework. Plus someone else may have to maintain it. Working out how your vanilla code works is worse than learning a framework because there's no help.

I lived this with an app made in 2012 that was all custom JS.

Plus how far do you want to take it? Write your own security modules? Create your own anti SQL injection code? The benefit of frameworks is you get free hardened code tested by millions.

But yes, I get it, gluing together Frameworks is depressing too. It just isn't fun.
