Yeah IIRC (from when it was introduced) it's an easy way to add SPA-like performance to your Ruby app by only re-rendering the <body> tag; no need to rebuild your server-side rendered app to a single-page application.

server-side rendered html by its nature is also more accessible then spa/vdom frameworks, that tries to be fast by skipping the dom and re-implementing it in js(suckers).
