> In theory some crappy browser extension could provide JS disabling functionality otherwise identical to tor/ublock/noscript but forget to display <noscript>s, but I haven't heard of implementations that are like this.

Any no-JS extension worths its salt should actually at least provide an option to ignore <noscript> as some websites that would otherwise work perfectly fine without JS use it maliciously.

Not sure if uBlock Origin has a checkbox to turn off <noscript> globally, but since it is an ad blocker, you could just manually add a global filter on all <noscript> tags. Or you could rely on the community's filter lists to remove specific instances of bullshit found in popular websites.
