CSS's problems are Tailwind's problems
Apparently this horse hasn't been beaten enough.
For reasons we'll get into later, Tailwind decided to burst on to the scene and become the default styling solution for all modern web development despite taking each and every one of these problems, exacerbating them, and applying them to places that didn't have them before. And when no hover comes up you know you mistyped (or your VSCode extension crashed) and now you have to Google "tailwind flexbox align items center" to remember it's not align-items-center or even align-center, it's items-center. I think the most important factor in Tailwind's success is that it does one thing very correctly: it demands the developer who installs it set up a config file that lays out all codebase-wide style constants: colors, margin sizes, fonts, border radii, etc.
