The guy who thinks client-side rendering is wrong is using ASP and JSP as his example web development systems. Those are outdated technologies. (ASP pre-dates ASP.NET by years). Since he is using outdated technologies as a reference point, I am not surprised he has an outdated perspective on client-side templating.
Client-side templating comes with its own problems and advantages. You might not need or want it. A lot of times though you do.
But the original guy who is against it is so far behind.. give it a year or two when people are taking desktop apps and compiling them to web assembly and running them in web browsers. Then the advantages will be obvious. But that is almost a reality today and that person probably doesn't even know that web assembly exists.
Sorry but people need to try harder not to fall behind.
