replyNot necessarily. Nested selectors make it pretty easy to apply styles in a modularized way. See https://rstacruz.github.io/rscss/
> With CSS names are global.
replyIn your "programmatic" code (your JS/TS, python, C++, whatever..) your classes are global. Even if the language supports flexible namespaces, or module scoping, you still have to take great care naming because reusing a name will cause you confusion. Giving two things the same name makes them harder to import, and risks clashes and bugs.
No-one complains about this. This is just how you code in all those other languages.
In "programmatic" code, declaring two classes with the same name in the same namespace is generally either some sort of syntax error or one will "shadow" the other; it doesn't just silently merge the behavior of both classes.
replyModules make the global thing less of a concern these days.
replyThis is (imo) the most valid argument for Tailwind: the UI semantics of "hero" "card" etc aren't put in CSS, they're put in the module. Modules are typically designed for this encapsulation, and CSS was not.
