Same here. It’s super weird take to me now. Maybe if you’re just writing plain HTML and CSS tailwind would be worse, but assuming there’s a component system you’re going to be just fine. The cascade of CSS is such a foot gun. Localized styles work great and tailwind abstracts away hardcoded values with relative ones

I prefer writing plain CSS over Tailwind

But I get component-scoped CSS (via Vue) and use custom props to abstract away hardcoded values

Tailwind isn’t the only option for those features
