The key reasons I chose YUI over the options were: documentation, continued support, and excellent documentation. I've experimented with a fair number of different javascript libraries and YUI's documentation seems to be the best out there, well produced, written with lots of examples and notes. I can feel comfortable teaching people how to use something under such active development knowing that the docs will be up to date, ready to help them upgrade down the line. When I first played with prototype I could figure out how to do things, but the docs were weak, and seemed to be trending behind development. I've seen the same thing in a bunch of other libraries, which is a bit sad :(.
