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.
