CSS does suck because of the globals. Class names, ids, z index values are all areas where one commonly bumps into other developers in sometimes confusing ways.
But to the point of the article, it’s a technology one has to learn. There are name spacing solutions in css (layers) and around css (css modules, panda, tailwind, etc).
I think another challenge folks may have with CSS is thinking visually. It’s not automatic. In art school one learns both how to see and how to render, and generally learning how to see clearly is a bigger challenge than learning how to render.
