There sure is a mismatch; component based frameworks emerged because of the mismatch Model 2 frameworks with page parts. Requests in Model 2 frameworks map to page wide actions. The controller/ view handler has to ensure the state of all elements of the page are kept in sync and rendered correctly. That's okay for simple pages, but if you have pages with multiple, independent parts (think e.g. of a pageable list being one of those) you're in a mess and generally have to use hackish solutions like command chaining and 'interception'. With component based frameworks, you should be able to create isolated parts (components) that react on events, keep state and render independently of the other parts of the page, making it easier and more elegant to write applications with, and also make reuse an option (because components are self contained). That's the whole idea of Model 2 vs CBD.
