I have cases where just a spike in traffic could cause serious issues on non-cached ssr pages.
An interesting consideration for SSR is that if the result is not cacheable you expose more surface area for DDoS attacks to happen

yeah it's scary; I've encountered instances where even seasoned devs waved cacheability as a non-concern

Have been trying to spread understanding of the caching issue. The DDoS potential really strengthens that argument.

Plus if you pre-render (or server render at all) you can deploy to a CDN and shift the whole concern to their network

this has worked fine for decades, however. and it's friendlier than DoSing clients with less resources. servers are cheap.
