People absolutely do use tailwind as an alternative to understanding CSS. Having seen and worked on projects in tailwind, I feel like that's it's primary purpose. Go on Twitter and look at the Tailwind community - they see CSS as a doomed, awful language and Tailwind as the thing that makes it pleasant. They're not CSS developers. They're people actively trying to avoid being CSS developers.
