I used to be a naysayer of tailwind. However after getting practically forced into it I'm now drinking the koolaid. Yes things like having to duplicate styles using multi cursor is kind of silly, however for the vast majority of the time, having the styles written clearly each time, for me, makes it worth it.

There is also nothing stopping you mixing and matching.

Yes, common sense. Having multiple approaches to solve the same thing tends to be a bad idea.

My point is that there is no one CSS library to rule them all and likely never will be. The closest to that is going back to pure raw CSS which I highly doubt people will do.

And yes while it's obviously not ideal to have a hundred competing libraries in your code, you can create what works for you / your team.

This is an extremely limiting view. They are both CSS at the end of the day. If extracting the complicated inline TailwindCSS class to its own vanilla CSS class makes sense for readability then what's the harm? You could also just define your own variables. Tailwind gives you full control to do this.
