You're not wrong.
There are clearly good uses for SPAs, but the author is totally correct that most sites are "open, check, close" experiences.
If it's not essentially a web based, desktop app...it's much harder to justify. Real tools. If it's not a tool and the user workflow is "open, check, close"...it's serious overkill.

Having worked on web based applications (not sites) for a couple decades, I have to agree... I'm a fan of either SPA + Node API (other APIs behind it as needed) or, can it build to a static deployment. I push to one end or the other.
