I can send completely readable html over the wire that becomes interactive once the JS finishes loading.

I realize I must look stupid saying this, because when you know your tech stack inside out the setup might be 15 minutes instead of days. But a large proportion of developers only learn to do things when they have to, and so you learn server side rendering the first time you have a customer willing to pay for the time it takes you to learn.
I also assume the ease of implementing SSR is highly dependent on the backend tech stack. My guess is that only Node.js makes it relatively easy.
I think that if you’re not very serious about front end then ignoring ssr is fine, but if UX or increasing conversions is a concern of yours then it’s vital.
