AFAICT a lot of the negativity comes from developers who want to work at a component UI Kit level you can find in native dev but don't find libs/kits that accommodate this well. I don't think this is a failure of CSS -- I think CSS has turned out to be brilliant with some blind spots and part of the most spectacularly flexible UI layer that's ever been created. But it works at a lower level and leaks easily and that plus some cultural factors has generally pulled people towards a below-component development focus lots of devs would rather have abstracted away. Container queries are one of several things that can move the dev culture more towards component level.
