This isn’t mine, but the number of my users with js turned off isn’t worth the effort. You guys make a lot of noise, but not a lot of traffic.

Your analytics are probably blocked by anyone who has JS off so your traffic numbers are skewed.

They aren’t.

This is not only about people who disable js, but also about people with disabilities who would benefit from accessibility features on your app. With this arguement, we should also ignore them, since they might not be the ones making the most traffic i.e. revenue for us. There is also the increasing number of users who disable trackes out of privacy concerns. At lease most of the marketing guys I've seen still assume what trackers show is all there is.

Accessibility isn’t being discussed here. All my sites are accessible, don’t conflate the two.

This sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy. Who's going to generate a lot of traffic interacting with a blank page?

This. Without JS the base expectation should be a blank page. Not even an error message.

That's a bizarrely vindictive attitude.
