That was really good reading. Lately, I've often heard the statement 'HTMX is frontend for backend developers.' What do you think of that quote?

Honestly, I think the frontend for backend developers has always been those simple Multi-Page Applications. I know they're not the hottest new thing, but they've been around, they work, and they've had time to integrate deeply into langauages & browsers (think PHP for example).

Maybe it's more accurate to say, "HTMX is frontend for backend developers who want a SPA."
