RE "neutered inspector": you can inspect the element and click ".cls" to toggle off classes: https://i.imgur.com/ig2SQw3.png
RE "you can't chain selectors": you can stack modifiers like `dark:hover`. The example of having the same styles for hover, active, and focus actually seems Not Great as those are different states that you 99% of the time want to look visually different (Tailwind examples include things like hover:bg-blue-600 active:bg-blue-700 which just seems like a better guardrail)
