You’re right, that very often huge frameworks are used for small projects and smaller, more focused libraries would be better. I disagree, however, that this is a real problem.
If I work on different projects, I shouldn’t reevaluate and pick new frameworks for each project. It makes sense to be consistent and stick with the ones already know, even if the (small) project doesn’t require all of it (as long as the framework isn’t going into the completely wrong direction).
IMO the outcome is better, if i use a not-perfectly-fitting framework right than if i use a better-fitting framework wrong.
