But many push towards single page apps even if a web site is better suited for the job. If you only have a hammer in your toolbox...

Also, you can have SPAs without Javascript, you can use any language / framework that targets Web Assembly. I enjoy Blazor for SPA.

How do you use WebAssembly without JavaScript? I thought it still requires glue code in order to access the DOM.
