Do only fools write webpages (with nothing but simple text) that are just white empty space when JavaScript is disabled?

Because the number of people who disable JavaScript is so low that they are not worth considering when designing something?

Even if that were true (it isn't), a site should still consider non-javascript rendering for accessibility purposes.

You have to actively break your site to make it broken this way, and that number may not be so low when you consider particular audiences (which is very likely the case for this post).

Not even speaking about making the website unnecessarily fragile from interpreter or network errors.
