I get it. And to be clear, I have seen SPAs that justified their existence. I just feel very strongly that for most of the apps I use on a regular, daily basis (email, messaging, newspapers, bank, etc), SPAs are just totally unnecessary.
A hill I will die on: the users NEVER asked for them. The UI community likes to pretend otherwise, but the users never asked for SPAs. What users want is the simplest, clearest and fastest possible experience, that changes only gradually and only when necessary. SPAs often stumble on simple and clear, and straight up explode on fast.
