Surely most creators of SPAs are using some routing library, and I’m not aware of any routing libraries that don’t handle this anchor tag click behavior by default. It’s really a trivial amount of “responsibility” to take on.

Again, not a showstopper but it’s a decision point: if you aren’t committed to testing this kind of thing on every release, you don’t have the resources to build an SPA.
