I’ve experienced the exact same thing. Most TW evangelists I know are admittedly not that great at CSS. Those who are generally prefer a library like MUI instead, which offers the same maintainability benefits, a far more consistent UI, but with a higher learning curve.

That's what I like about tailwindcss - unlike MUI and co, it lets you follow sane design rules laid by tailwind and yet make the website look different from the rest.

Consistency of UI entirely depends on the user of tailwind.

As an end user (not developer) I'd take just about any design system over MUI. It's so clunky/heavy, has an abundance of useless white space, and just feels really outdated.

I'd love to love MUI, but in my experience: MUI + React + Typescript just moves the toil of doing anything away from the style concerns and makes it a purely Typescript puzzle.
