I don’t want/need cascade. I only care about components and building up from them. And I would rather have it be explicit over implicit and scoped/encapsulated.
Call it composition over cascade.
To be clear I think it’s possible to do this without tailwind. And tailwind has other out of the box features/opinions.
But it works well enough without too much friction.

It is not. Because it fits the concept of "web pages" as documents and forms (which most web apps are, even if they're trying to pass as desktop applications.

And you're very welcome to do what you want. But there's no need to bash cascading as it's a good solution for web pages.
