I find that developers add a CSS reset without thinking about it as if there is always a need. We never used resets. There was never a need. Typically we would set something according to the design anyway and starting with a reset was like slamming something against one wall only to throw it back to a different wall later.

They were a lot more necessary when each browser threw in fairly random sets of default styling. These days they've converged heavily on the same defaults.

Surely you must reset something? At the very least box-sizing
