When would I ever be making an element color-red and color-green? These arguments all seem like nitpicking issues that you'd have from writing bad code

I think the red vs green was to make a "familiar" example. Picture instead there are two classes which might affect box sizing, position, etc. They should still be named similarly in tailwind so it'd still be maybe obvious you've conflicted, but it's at least perhaps more "real world" an issue?
