French sport daily newspaper l'Équipe is moving away from SPAs:
(Translated)
> With a SPA, performance depends on a global execution time of the application, while with an MPA, it stems directly from the work actually needed to display the page. In summary, moving from SPA to MPA was, for our website, a reduction in complexity where it no longer brought value, to the service of performance.

Not every user owns an iPhone
As software engineers and technologists its common to have access to some powerful devices and super fast bandwidths. It's highly likely that you will be developing/testing on a high end Mac (or similar) or pulling out an expensive mobile device such as an iPhone from your pocket. But we need to be
Web Performance is about understanding how the Web works.
The catch? When Marketing and Product, who know the needs very well, completely delegate technical decisions to IT, which ends up choosing based on their preferences or trends.

> Every browser has bugs. But the sheer quantity of things that only fail in Safari is kind of baffling.
Utilizing Contentsquare Digital Experience Monitoring helps gather and rank technical errors on websites. Errors on iOS/Safari are 15% to 45% higher than traffic share, indicating a higher error rate. Yet, none of the dev teams I spoke to planned tests on iOS/Safari.
