Sure, I once read about a case where they were developing a website for suicide prevention. The design philosophy there was that the site should always present the information, the site should not be dependent on JavaScript to display, just in case it was turned off.

There is a growing number of people that choose to turn it off because they do not want to be tracked.

Lastly, although screen readers and other accessibility tools nowadays can cope pretty well with the modern web, those tools still struggle with SPA's.

You can turn off JavaScript and see for yourself. Government websites would be a good place to start.
