Not all web pages are (or at least need to be) web apps. Logging into an account vs reading a static page is apples to oranges.

Mandating JS to get any content, no matter how static, seems like the start of the death of e.g. Linked Data and a the web as an open standards based platform. I know I'm in the minority but diversity is a strength, and there are few places more important than the web.

I don't see why JavaScript is antithetical to linked data. If it's because the web page can't be statically analyzed, that's a solvable problem---you dynamically execute the page in a JavaScript sandbox.

Google had to solve a similar problem to successfully index Flash content. [https://searchengineland.com/google-now-crawling-and-indexin...]
