So far I have mostly used Dojo for its tree in a CMS tool, and some Prototype
functions notably for layered lookups.
I still see them as complementary (Dojo coming more complete but heavier,
Prototype being mostly an API).
I does do think it's necessary to make a choice.

I started using Dojo in Ofbiz long
back and in six months because of issues faced we switched
to using prototype. At that time there were few others in
comunity who liked prototype better. But I really don't
remember the reasons.
Since then new checkout process was added that uses
prototype for all javascript needs. But did not remove Dojo
because i did not want to upset anybody in community.
Thanks and Regards
