This hasn't been my experience at all. SPAs are so simple for me to spin up these days with all the tooling to cover the boilerplate for you, e.g. create-react-app or Vue CLI. With the advent of cloud providers, hosting is insanely simple too. You can get a working SPA out in a day complete with a frontend, backend API, and a database.
