"if you care about interactivity, responsiveness, and general user experience"
A simple web page (no-js) in a browser covers these three things to a highly acceptable standard. It's when you start to add the other junk that these three become compromised.
For example:
Interactivity: Hyperlinks work great from HTML 1.0 onwards
Responsiveness: Without additional items like JavaScript or even CSS, web pages are incredibly responsive.
General User Experience: The basic web page user experience is EXCELLENT for web pages because it is incredibly basic. Even date pickers can consist of 3 select drop downs (or even a text box; there are plenty of human-date-to-ISO-3306 convertors out there)
