I absolutely disagree that apps and spas would destroy nerfed HTML, in your example.
The web moved in those directions for a multitude of reasons, but user experience isnt necessarily one of them. Server side rendering and a miniscule amount of js can give a great fast experience, and doesn't require the site to use a proprietary layout toolkit. An HTML SSA app, where the user controlled the UI toolkit in browser would be pleasant and easier to develop.
