Is using Caliburn.Micro justified?

Question

.NET

Hello!
I study WPF recently, but I managed to write one simple accounting application, so to speak, on the "naked" WPF. The company had a question of using Caliburn.Micro in a new project. I compared it with other frameworks (the competitor is MVVM Light in my opinion). By examples, I wrote a couple of HelloWorlds. As a result, questions only increased:
1) It turns out that its whole point is in the simplicity of binding the ViewModel to the View?
2) By its search for properties from the ViewModel for x:Name, is performance lost and how much?
3) As I understand it, this framework uses events instead of commands. What about performance?
Thank you in advance!
I will be glad to advice on the whole topic.

1. Essentially - yes. This is his main "feature".
2. Yes, it is lost, but not significantly. I do not remember, somewhere came across benchmarks.
3. I can't say anything about this. I do not remember.

PS Personally, I liked MVVM Light more. Although there are coroutines in Caliburn.Micro.
