I think the comparison is not between jquery and native Dom functions but between making something quickly with jquery compared to using angular or react for example

Probably. I was just making the point that jQuery is no longer needed for most use cases. Lots of folks have no idea what the latest browsers are now capable of.

I'll admit as I moved into managmemt js has also improved. These prototypes are tossaways so it's just faster for me.to grab jquert.

(Btw I love react and use it in any serious project... but each to definitely has its place)
