Same question. I was using Raphael.js earlier and had to switch to svg.js for SVG specific features, and it's quite a nice library, though perhaps not as developed as Raphael in terms of documentation.

The only possible conflicting goal I can imagine is that one of svg.js' goals is to be as small as possible (e.g. generating an <ellipse> instead of a <circle> to increase code reuse between the circle and ellipse shapes[1]).
