I think you have to look at what you're building. For example Netflix is really big on React, and the JavaScript you're shipping to the user is much smaller in comparison to the CPU and bandwidth required to stream video.

I'd also say it comes into the other libraries people end up including into their bundles, for example Moment. React + React-Dom is only 38.5 KB where as Moment is 70 KB (both when minified and gzipped).
