That was something that React Server Components definitely got backwards. The default state of the world before RSC was client components. If a mark is needed it should have been "use server" for the new style of components.
I don't mind that, because I think server components should be the default. They're better. But the profusion of CSS-in-JS solutions (which always seemed unwise to me) take it on the chin because of it.
The real kick to the shins is that React Server Components did a number on most component libraries, too. I've been forced to go to Tailwind (and DaisyUI, which is pretty nice) just so my stuff doesn't require 'use client' all over the place. The end result will be way better, it already is when you actually can get there, but right now it's annoying and awkward.
