Really? Tailwind sucks but that's literally the only good part of it.

Locality is one of the most important things in code. If I'm reading line 38 of foo.js and something elsewhere in the app effects that line, I want that something to be on line 37 of foo.js, not line 158 of bar.js.

The problem with Tailwind isn't the co-locating of HTML and CSS. It's that it does it by adding an entire new layer of complexity that's basically a copy paste of an large standardised API with the names of everything changed. It's barely even an abstraction.
