Are you unfamiliar with having-a-boss?

He is familiar with the boss being the one mandating the design system, and not the one asking "can we push that button a few pixels to the left?"
On the places where things work, bosses act like the GP's one. Granted, that doesn't happen on the large majority of places.
In a design system. You specify variants of a component. Each one has its own combination of style defined by the design system.
You do not set „Gap“ to 2. you would specify smth like „small“, „medium“ or „large“ as props.
This is not a tailwind issue.
