Search suggestions require JS. Also, why would Google spend the resources supporting the 5 people that block JS when virtually all websites and users rely on JS. This is a nothingburger of a story.
who the fuck needs google's suggestions? It's not a necessity
You are vastly underestimating the popularity of uBlock Origin's JS blocking feature.
i dont think there are only five guys disabling JS on google search, but just by noscript without exceptions, it's only 200k on firefox... but who would use evil chromium today?
