Yep, they solve the same problem. I built my blog on Harry Roberts' ITCSS paradigm some ten years ago, and found it extremely easy to migrate to cascade layers. They're an underutilized solution to addressing growing specificity.
They're admittedly less useful if you're already using component-based design. That's closer to something like BEM in hyper-targeting each element.
