I'm arguing that Tailwind requires _significantly_ more markup to produce the same look and feel. There is no way anyone could implement the semantic version with less code using TW.

And I personally find less code more readable than more code. Particularly with Tailwind where the difference can be 10x or more. I'm talking about this real-world scenario:

The intention is clear, but you are exaggerating your argument by comparing a plane with a car. The Tailwind example is a much more feature complete product, then your „lightweight“ copy. Also, as I said it might be written with another intention then being super small. You use body > header > nav > a. You could write an example in Tailwind that uses the same markup structure, which then would be a valid starting point for an article like this, despite I assume you could not come up with the same conclusions.
