By "vanishgly unpopular", you mean "always upvoted to the top of hackernews"?
The internet archive seems to do fine with JavaScript. As does most search engines.
Also, I know a blind person who tells me the best browser to use is.. safari on Mac. Full blown JS, everything works great.
At this point, javascript is a full part of the web. Making good quality, disable and accessible pages is hard enough, without having to effectively do it twice (with and without JavaScript), for an increasingly small set of use cases.
