When I was a FE developer building single page apps, I would hear these arguments and say "you just don't get it, man, SPAs are the future". Now that I don't get paid to work on SPAs, these and other downsides come into very stark relief, and it's the advantages which seem more dubious to me. I doubt I'll ever touch an SPA again, and I'm not mad about that.

Indeed: "It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it"
