In my opinion, the main problem with Tailwind is that it attempts to replace all CSS. Tailwind classes are often non-semantic and don't align well with CSS property names. Where pure CSS can be used, the code will be cleaner and more readable. It's important to remember that HTML has a "style" attribute, and it's often much easier to define a style block directly in the "style" attribute than to use a fragment and Tailwind's cumbersome CSS classes.
