I’d just like to expand on this, as I think it’s a great comparison!

Carefully picking tools is important, but also, don’t adopt more tools than you need to.

One common example I have seen is pulling in a CSS-in-JS library to do something that SASS can easily do... when SASS is already incorporated into the build process.

SASS offers a fairly complex set of features if you care to learn about them, and the module system (in development) is going to solve @import global scoping issues very elegantly.

If you need something much less complex than Sass, but has a similar syntax to Sass (not SCSS), PostCSS + SugarSS has been nice for me. I really prefer indented syntax, and ever since CSS variables became readily available on my project support requirements, there's not been much reason to reach for Sass. A lot of people seem to point to the color functions, but I don't think a lot of people noticed Sass and Less don't do color mixing/darkening properly (they don't square the gamma before doing operations) so I wouldn't advise using these built-ins anyhow.
