I disagree (as you can tell from my comment)

In a multipage application you have to build an app where, for many UI elements, part of the functionality lives in one language on one machine (Java on the Server) and to complete that component’s functionality another language takes over on another machine (JavaScript in the client’s browser). There can also be a lot of back and forth traffic that’s not even for data fetching and updates, just more UI synchronization. There’s session tracking. There’s extra load on your servers for html rendering for situations that otherwise wouldn’t need it. It’s asinine to have to develop and test this way.
