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.
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?
who the fuck needs google's suggestions? It's not a necessity
