This jokes only works if you never used flex.

  this joke is older than flex

    Of course, and so it doesn’t make sense to continue using it now that it’s outdated.

    The joke is played out and it's time to move on.

  Flexbox makes it a lot easier, but it’s not fool proof. I’ve had situations where even flex refused to center something because it was ensured strangely (but out of my control), or because the containers size wasn’t being inherited correctly (again be a use of parent elements out of my control). Compared to something like Qt/QML’s anchors and layouts, flexbox still feels like a crude hack, to me.

    Too late to edit: “because it was nested strangely”
