This study compares two websites with similar design: the commercial Spotlight template from developers of Tailwind vs the same site with semantic CSS.

I've seen people advocate for Tailwind because "CSS is too hard, I don't want to think about selectors".

Yep, those people are wrong :)

(I mean sure, you can sort-of mostly skip selectors if you use Tailwind, but selectors are about the easiest part of CSS. I've never heard of someone struggling specifically with those but not with e.g. layouts, stacking context, relative font sizes, etc.)
