If you have multiple websites that rely on your information
If you have a single website then it's debatable but it comes down with giving you more flexibility with the presentation layer (front end part)
But is that in any way better than just having multiple frontends to a single backend?
I mean, I do like distributed systems, but can you really sell that to a client?
Great idea. But why would that be better than something that does both. Head + API?

Maybe, because you want to totally customize the look via SPA, which is the Head.
