a lot of people consider working with the web platform directly (sans frameworks) quaint / old school / whatever but when it comes to CSS, working directly with the platform is *the cutting edge*

It's the only way to avoid wasting your time. Sad to see projects/developers get trapped in these gap-filler solutions just because they want to avoid learning the fundamentals. Still blown away by what you can do with vanilla HTML, CSS, and JS these days.

this thought brought to you by a Tailwind upgrade I'm working on, which is *just now* getting full support for custom properties, 6 or so years after they were widely available in all modern browsers

A lot of developers will swear by Tailwind because they like small classes and lots of them, one for every property, if fact. Try telling them they should do the same in their "programming" language :)
