Yes. The best explanation of Tailwind is when Adam describes it as “an API for your design system.”

The biggest problem with CSS when trying to maintain a design system is the same problems you run into any time you use inheritance in programming.

Inheritance has its place, but making your CSS composable the way Tailwind does makes it practical to actually adhere to a design system.

If you’re more worried about the purity of your HTML, then Tailwind is not for you.
