I have great respect for you but this seems a bit mean spirited. Why shouldn't devs want to be as many things as possible? Is css-in-js is more ridiculous than

  It's just my opinion of course :) but I think css-in-js is a step backwards in the majority of cases. I do like CSS modules in terms of scoping / modularity, but I don't want to replace CSS with (what I consider to be) really gross JS implementations. I don't want to discourage people trying new things, but I also don't want people to waste thousands of collective hours dealing with crazy configuration. I think toying around with those things are fun for people who get paid by startups etc, but for those of us who simply want to get things done, the ecosystem is not enjoyable.

    I think you are conflating multiple things. There's several JS styling libraries have literally zero configuration (and don't involve build tooling, etc). They "just work" out of the box.
