Not trolling mind you, but about the lack of jQuery fandom - what's not to like?

I've settled on it for being relatively lightweight, the API is concise and it plays nice with other libraries (unlike prototype). I'd like to know what others find lacking in it, or compelling cases for other libraries.

    pQuery("td", $dom)->each(sub { my $i = shift; print $i, " => ", pQuery($_)->text(), "\n"; });
    
    which does not work. Going back to each.t reveals code that does...
    my $output = ''; pQuery($html)->find('li')-
