For what it's worth, it takes very little work (< 20 lines of code, IIRC) to stub out the require() function so that you can use Marionette without RequireJS. (Sadly, the project I was working on that required that wouldn't allow me to open-source that bit of glue code).
Of course, that doesn't address all the other incidental complexity you inevitably have to deal with when using Marionette.

If that's the case, I'd love to hear how hr differs from all of the other "backbone-on-steroids" projects like Marionette and Chaplin.
Agreed. Marionette has been somewhat of a pain to gain consensus on in terms of application architecture (considering RequireJS integration as well).
