I keep wondering if this can be attributed to front-end devs learning SPA libraries (React, Angular, etc..), skipping the 'boring boilerplate' by attending boot camps that start them with a gigantic node_modules/ folder, and never actually learning the fundamentals of HTML, like anchor links (I doubt such developers even know that the 'a' tag stands for 'anchor'). So we end up with unsemantic div soup everywhere, and such developers breaking into a cold sweat when someone utters 'accessibility' in proximity to their demo.
