I'd love answers to these questions too. Svelte looks cool from a technology perspective but honestly it's biggest selling point is solving problems I don't have.

It’s solving a performance problem on low-powered, embedded web platforms, such as TVs and even consoles with powerful hardware but inefficient browsers (e.g. PS4’s WebMAF).

It isn't about your problems, it is about your user's problems.

Do you think I'm writing web applications for myself?

I agree with ng12 here. If my users are getting 60FPS+ with Angular or React there is no tangible performance issue my users are suffering from.
