This is good, a real objective evaluation. I think most of the critics of HTMX stems from pure front-end devs who are not really concerned of the back-end side.
While HTMX is tailor made/simple, for those who needs to build full-stack, while also having the great experience of SPAs.
Granted, it will never be able to compete with powerful JS frameworks on an apple-to-apple comparison, but that's not what it's designed for, It's an upgrade of HTML, not JS.
