That's not really the case since SCSS became a thing. If SCSS doesn't help you, Tailwind won't, you can ignore their classes just as you could ignore preset constants.

Honestly, to me it seems like people are just starting "fresh" with a benefit of some experience, and ascribing the benefits of experience to the tool.

I've used SASS for years, and yet switching to tailwind felt reaaally nice. have you tried it for yourself, or are you just assuming that you understand the practical differences?

Tailwind isn't a particularly new invention. I've worked with similar tools developed in-house years ago, and have no desire to do it again, no.
