Not to me. :-)

You're leaving out all sorts of opportunity costs here. Maybe you could
strain yourself to the point of silly exhaustion in order to never use
JavaScript, but the question remains in 2005: why?

I'm sure somebody can come up with an exception or two of unusual
circumstances, but for the vast majority out there, I can't see a legitimate
reason. Some of the world's most heavily and publicly used web apps by the
usual web behemoths couldn't function without JS. Unless, of course, they
reduce functionality/UX or increase complexity at the backend.

I think JS has stopped being an "issue" long time ago.
