None of that is true universally unless your target audience is corporate users with hardwired connections and high-end computers. If you measure performance, very few SPAs manage to approach the performance of a 2010 SSR app and even fewer developers spend the time to handle errors as well as the built-in browser page reloading behavior.
That’s not to say that an SPA can’t be fast or robust, only that the vast majority of developers never get around to doing it.
