There was a question point-blank about layout and front-end. He himself was (and is) a back-end'er, so in my opinion, the front-end should receive and process data from the back, and decide where to issue this data. Or is it better to separate layout and front?

The front is all that the user sees. Including layout. In principle, it is not very clear how you can adequately deal with the front if you don’t understand what you are dealing with at all. Where the data is inserted, how it will be displayed, and so on.
Maybe, of course, there is no direct special need to know everything to the last property, but the front must have a good command of the entire base, otherwise some kind of garbage turns out.

As a matter of fact bound.
Should a high school math teacher know how to add and subtract?

Naturally. How can you write a script for something you don't know about?

Should, but it is possible without fanaticism.

If the project cannot afford a highly qualified layout designer(s) or the requirement "if only it works and don't care that a bunch of slow JS, where you could write a couple of CSS rules", then the front-end (JS / TS developer)) may not know the layout thoroughly. If at least one condition is not met, then it must.
