This is insane to you only if you didn't experience the emergence of this technique 20-25 years ago. Almost all server-side templates were already partials of some sort in almost all the server-side environments, so why not just send the filled in partial?

Business logic belongs on the server, not the client. Never the client. The instant you start having to make the client smart enough to think about business logic, you are doomed.

Could you explain more here? What do you consider "business logic". Context: I have a client app to fly drone using gamepad, mouse and keyboard, and video feedback and maps, and drone tasking etc.
