Well-designed sites that use JS for navigation will still have 
navigation that works without JS.

No need to convince sites about this. Just go elsewhere. If they're 
trying to sell something, there are piles of other sites out there 
trying to sell the same things. You buy from the one that doesn't 
require Flash or Javascript for navigation, only needs it when you go to 
buy things.

I use NoScript. It enables me to selectively (and temporarily) enable 
Javascript and/or Flash for a site. So I can allow the JS that a 
particular site needs, while blocking web-tracking scripts such as 
Google Analytics and other tracking tricks used by Facebook ...
