As a designer that used to make pixel perfect websites turned developer, CSS lets me offload so much of what I need in building UIs and keeps my templates/JSX as close to data representation as possible. With my components having tightly scoped CSS, the only CSS I share between my components is very universal branding settings. My class names make sense and my SCSS reads like the DOM, and the only non unique dom-selector class name is the 'active' state. I loathe having to deal with so much layout building classes in my dom, having to swap them for responsive layouts, etc. My css determines layouts. My html presents data. It keeps my javascript very focused on function.
