The article only tested one site with one browser, hardly a good test. It may be correct anyway but it IS not a proof.

It may also be much harder to implement something like a comment section that is fast and correct with only static html and a server backend.

I don’t understand why doing things the non-JavaScript way wouldn’t be correct. Surely you still need to do all the correctness things on the server anyway even if you do some in JS because client side validation won’t stop other people (or spammers) from sending invalid requests to the server. When I think of a correctness problem it would be in keeping the js-rendered comment section synchronised with the server-side comment section which seems harder than making it work with no js.
