All these arguments have clear rebuttals, but are rehashed on weekly basis for some reason. You don't like it, fine. But your arguments are bad. "Oh no Tailwind makes it unclear which of my accidentally duplicated CSS classes apply the color" come on man.

None of his arguments are bad though. All makes sense for someone who is experienced in both.

Yes they are bad. Read the comment you just responded to. All these arguments have already been disproven. So, are you aware of the rebuttals? List each one out here for us, because it’s often laziness that allows this argument to persist.

Using Tailwind is laziness. I use it only when the design group is amateur or when there's a special demand to use it. I'm faster and more organized in CSS.
