Performance (content delivery & optimisation), internationalisation and do HTML (semantics) and ARIA (roles, states and properties) properly and don’t think it “works” and so it’s fine.. it rarely is. On the note of ARIA, it’s best NOT to use it actually since websites that do have 11+ more errors on average due to bad implementation per page and so learn using the aria authoring practices guide before touching that.
Generally though the biggest one for a backend is the performance area, reducing page size, request payloads, etc helps with income inequality by keeping data use down for those who can’t afford much which happens in even “developed” markets and more generally is good practice to boot.

Yes! I think we often forget that not everyone has access to the same quality of internet connection. Making sure everything is as efficient and as small as possible is important.

+1 for reducing the amount of stuff you send over the wire.

It's a worthwhile read and could take you down some interesting rabbit holes, highly recommended.
