I'm not a fan of the SPA, or at least in practice, but there is something very attractive about going with a solution that everybody knows.

At work we are building a new "website like" frontend and it is a SPA (that internally operates as a MPA) built with React. The main reasons are we: know this setup well and know when hiring we will find people who know this setup as well. Beyond that, it will allow us to build out more application like features in the future if needed.

This approach has been popular in the industry for over 10 years now. Whereas most of the current discussion and tech on the frontend feels like churn and betting on the next thing. A lot of people just want tools that are mature and can get the job done regardless of them being the best tool under specific criteria.
