I am mostly on the SPA-hating camp. There are two issues that annoy me the most. They are not a framework's fault but some kind of "mental model" fault:

First. When doing SPAs, APIs tend to leak a lot more info than needed, opening the door to attacks not commonly seen on server-rendered pages.

Second. Applications' bundle tend to have way more than users needs, even UI's they should not have access due to security/permissions. Most developers are not even aware of this problem and don't know that sensible info/features/endpoints are leaking.

As I said before, those are not faults at the framework level, but the development style that I seed used when making SPAs always led to them.
