I think with server side pages, you’re limited in how much you can mess it up, but very limited in how far you can take the experience.

With single page apps you have to do a lot more to get back to what server side pages give you, basic browser functionality, and as a result you can end up with worse experiences. However if you’ve got the development resources it can be a far better experience and enable applications that just wouldn’t be usable or even possible on server side rendered pages.

Name me a single thing you can't do in a SPA that you can't do in a MPA with a bit of Ajax?

The only thing I can conceivably think of is an offline app, but they're so rediculously niche.
