I agree but only if all front-end aspects your application is 100% built in-house. Otherwise, you have framework styles, 3rd party plugin/library styles, etc. Sometimes you have to lean on !important and it's OK - not something to bug yourself out over.
If you've reached the point where you know the right time to use !important, you probably already know its bad and most likely don't need any of this advice.
