Because lit is too bare metal to qualify as a js framework. Does it have good solutions for router or state management? Last time i checked: No.

That is why it is not discussed that much. If you need to write components, then lit may work for you, but whoever wants to ise those components would prefer a js framework.

Also, lit is from Google. which makes it worse as Angular is from Google as well

Lit is just syntactic sugar for bare metal stuff that is W3C standards based. There isn't any vendor lock-in and won't be "upgrading" your Lit because they told you to.

You are right on components for other people -- but if all the components are for you or your company, ones you handcraft w/ Lit will be lighter weight and easier to write and fix.
