imo, even if the only "interactivity" a web app has is just a login page, then even that alone is enough to warrant using a framework rather than doing direct DOM manipulation (or even worse, full page refreshes after a form submit).
It's not about using the most powerful tool always, it's about knowing how to leverage modern standards rather than reinventing and solving problems that are already solved.
Not really. If you use react router, you can have a client side js app and add SSR with a couple of hours work. You have your cake and eat it
