This is reasonable logic and I think it is an important point in getting more people into a technology movement, whether it is removing JS or anything else. A similar example is getting encrytion: many users don't know or care to use it, so it is usually a side issue if mentioned at all in a company. But if the percentage of people who do use it increases, companies will have a greater interest in supporting it.
Currently, normal users just care that content loads when the click the link for a website, and perhaps don't understand or care that JS is running or what the consequences of that is. A more constructive way to get better experience without JS is to ask others to also block it to show companies that this is an issue, rather than just directly asking companies to add support.
