I'm all for tightly coupled display-logic and its markup; I just don't think it should reside in a JS(X) file unless it's generating a single tag.

While I agree that other MVC frameworks are not great (I've seen many of Angular's pains & weaknesses), I think this was a step in the wrong direction.
