> Coming up with good names for things is one of the hardest jobs in programming and this style forces you to name everything.
People say that. If you build stuff in components like you are supposed to you almost always have a server side component or component logic that you will have to name. So you are going to have to start naming things properly somewhere.
You are simply kicking the can down the road.

It isn't a negative kneejerk reaction. I've worked with sites where they have done similar things to tailwind and it is a nightmare to understand what is going on with the page.

The markup is almost unreadable, it completely defeats the point of what CSS is supposed to do and it creates considerable mental overhead for someone who isn't familiar with it.
But I suppose I shouldn't really expect anything else from other web developers that over the last 20 odd years somehow manage to not understand the tech they are given.
