sorry, but if a front end interface is not easily understood, it is bad. its entire purpose is to have usability attributes, like predictability. SPAs break back buttons , new tab buttons, scrolling positions etc, the most basic stuff of web navigation

I think SPAss are much like special effects in movies: You only notice them when you bad.
I build SPAs as part of my job. Good SPAs do not break the back button. Insisting they do is silly.

Yes, almost any routing library will expose a Link component wrapper that properly sets those attributes.

Chiming in with "yes". When you can't, it's a bug; routing frameworks like e.g. react-router render to normal HTML, and only intercept left-clicks to override default browser behavior for those specific actions.
