I did. The only hints were in the opening paragraphs, and they were just hints:

> "I've read countless blog posts, twitter rants and medium exposés detailing how jQuery isn't necessary, and why you should just write with "native" JavaScript."

Not reasons.

> "There is, however, a very major reason to avoid jQuery, and it has very little to do with features or file-size."

File-size? Ok. But "features" isn't a reason, without fleshing out.
