Thank you for making these points, I'm just disappointed at how often they need repeating for some people, do you know of a website that explains the reasoning behind not relying 100% on JavaScript for your website?

There's motherfuckingwebsite.com but the tone of that site is very adversarial, I think one that lays out the reasoning in a noncombative way would be more successful at reaching some of these people.

Hmm. None in particular, though you could just look around for some of the older resources on progressive enhancement - that's what it's called, and it used to be a recommended practice everywhere.

There's also this post, that goes into it somewhat: http://allinthehead.com/retro/367/why-is-progressive-enhance... - also, Brad Frost has some posts about this.
