You do when writing on top of other code that already hurt your a11y and perf scores.
Build from scratch with semantic HTML, WAI-ARIA and progressive enhancement in mind and you'll be fine.
The tools we work with right now, like node packages and frameworks for everything just don't encourage that style of working. In all our tooling confusion, some people forget that websites are performant and accessible by default.
