Why do you think CSS-in-JS has only caught on in the React community?

Probably because it's the only one among major popular frameworks that doesn't use weird compile-to-js templates, and relies on JS only.

Others (I'm thinking Angular and Vue) have their own templating systems that they compile to JS anyway.

RDD (resume driven development).

Cargo culting.

Ooooh shiney!
