This is a jQuery extension(or utility jQuery functions), calling it a MVP framework or comparing it with MV* frameworks/libraries is plain sensationalist and attention seeking.

I totally agree with you, still I like the concept and the approach behind Riot.

This achieves a great deal of what these frameworks do with a mere fraction of the technical debt.

it doesn't rely on jquery. You can use whatever DOM abstraction you want. This just mounts under the $ namespace. And even if it did, it's still no big deal since jquery isn't a framework; it's just a monolith dom abstraction lib + stuff. jquery doesn't dictate how you structure your app or how you model your data, whilst backbone, angular, knockout, ember etc do. Dictating application structure is where the technical debt comes in as it infects every line of code and is a very difficult decision to back out of.

hardly better than (or even as good as) any real framework. the fact that it depends on jQuery makes it even worse

it doesn't depend on jquery, it just mounts under the $ variable.
