> most modern CSS solutions are massively overthought

Example is Tailwind. Which in the end is same as inline CSS.

This is false and people need to stop parroting it..

Inline styles have high specificity and are often the culprit of specificity clashes.

Inline styles don't follow a design/theme, tailwind has sensible defaults for spacing/colours and consistency etc.

Inline styles are even more verbose than a tailwind class list.

Tailwind has responsive classes out of the box.

Inline styles don't really support pseudo classes....
