Speaking for myself, I find it much quicker and easier to build an SPA than a server rendered app. You seem to take the stance that server rendered is the default, normal way to architect and SPA requires justification for its aberrant departure from the norm.

SPA have lots of advantages: fewer languages to learn, easier to deploy, etc.

The two examples you give are only true if you don't have a backend at all. As soon as you have a backend, you're back to having to pick a backend language and deploy a backend server.

If your app doesn't need a backend, then I'd agree that an SPA is the way to go.
