Yes I can. That's one of my criteria to start taking this seriously. Though I could be persuaded other ways.

Do you have any data to back this up?

Do any internet security suites (whose job it is to "protect people from viruses") advocate disabling JS?

Is Apple Safari switching off JS?

Are there popular Chrome extensions that do this?

If it's really that important to you, you can probably go help make one of the above happen.

Actually I care about front-end performance a great deal. I advocate for it, as well as server side rendering.

I'm just not convinced about the evils of JS. I routinely have plenty of tabs open and if my fan starts running I close the one that's using the most CPU. Half the time it's Slack.

So far, "I've disabled JS" translates in my mind to "tech extremist". Not seeing a lot of people doing it and not believing the reasons. At least not yet.

My technical decisions are driven by efficacy, expediency, skill marketability and what I enjoy working with. If you want to change my mind you'll need to speak to those factors.
