Vue strikes me as the right choice. More mainstream than Preact, but I want some clarification: Where does Wordpress use these libs? Is it just on the admin side of things or do they ship as part of the front-end for end-users in any way? If it's strictly for the admin interface, I'd think the PreactJS build size wouldn't be as much of a benefit.

WordPress will choose one lib and it will become the de-facto standard for everyone in the community to learn, support, and use both at the backend and frontend.
Right now, Gutenberg is in dev phase, it's the new Editor/Page builder for WordPress — the default one actually. It was using ReactJS and now we are looking at what's next?
I also think that VueJS is a good lib with a huge ecosystem. MarkoJS looks promising as well.
Interesting. I'd definitely give a nod to Preact for the major emphasis on build size and close-to-the-metal performance, which I'd say is of huge importance for something as web-important as wordpress. The web really gets choked by too many basic content sites that force you to download a whole gigantic app on load.
I'll also note that Preact creator @_developit
is Canadian🇨🇦 like me and has pretty great fashion sense if I do say so 😋

You make some valid points there.
Esp about the fashion sense :P
