The fact that server rendered components and prerender in general relies on javascript kinda makes any backend app not written in node.js have a huge dependency just to deliver that experience. Node is not particularly known for its robustness in terms of having mature backend frameworks at the level of laravel (PHP) or Rails (Ruby). Are we just expected to ship our apps with our backend app lang and Node to pre-render stuff? Jezz, what's next?
Well it's possible that something like WASM bridges the gap a different way. But what we are seeing is JavaScript being the only language of the browser getting pushed into the server to deliver on the idea of a single web. It's not surprising.
People can not use it just like they haven't been using Node. But there is a desire for universal solutions in this space, so I've been expecting a mad rush. The writing has been on the wall for a while now. I guess its taken the right time for this to happen. Not sure all the catalyst but something has been changing.

Or, you know, you could just render it without JavaScript...
