Except you just contradicted yourself. If everyone wants to use JavaScript frameworks and APIs for data they they ARE separating the content from the presentation.

If you think JS frameworks are used only for data manipulation, you're sorely mistaken. Runtime styling has been a primary aim of JavaScript code since even before the popularization of jQuery.

That's not true. The DOM that the javascript frameworks mangle around isn't data but UI elements, some of which happen to be data.
