You mean the documentation that was never written, because the developer thought: "Ah but this is just the usual usage of the framework I am using. I don't need to write anything about that."

Well, on most SPAs you would need them, because people build SPAs all the time without caring, whether they are actually building an app or are actually building a website. So what you get are things that would be a normal website, but implemented using SPA frameworks and then have broken browser functionality. An IDE or an image editor would probably be OK examples for SPA, but the reality unfortunately is very different.
> What your are talking about seem to be simple CRUD apps. I have built those with server-rendered templates, yes (here's a takehome for some company from a couple of years back: https://github.com/golergka/url-shortener).
Exactly! I am talking about the cases, when people take out the sledgehammer, where a screwdriver would have been appropriate.
