> increases your fingerprint as not many users turn it off

We're talking about users of the Tor browser, and I'd be very surprised if this was the case (that a majority keep JS turned on)

Basically every Tor guide (heh) tells you to turn it off because it's a huge vector for all types of attacks. Most onion sites have captcha systems that work without JS too which would indicate that they expect a majority to have it disabled.
