Sorry - you've conflated two things:

"When building complex front-end apps frameworks help."

doesn't imply:

"Everything on the web should pretend it's an app"

My sweet-spot is is pjax, progressive enhancement and "let's pretend some people have javascript turned off so we can maintain a sane architecture without having to explain why"...

But - some things that run in a browser ARE apps and need some support beyond jQuery et al.
