Lots of examples of it online of people using Tailwind because they don't know CSS well enough, it's not even debatable when they themselves literally claim that's why they use it.

Even in this thread there are people doing so: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34921960

I understand perfectly well why people like Tailwind. The problem is not initial productivity; indeed, I can write bash scripts too very quickly that make me feel infinitely productive. It's what comes afterwards, the maintenance, the teasing of code written, that Tailwind makes so difficult.

And sure, use what you want, but I won't use it.
