I think the problem is that doing good frontend is a skill like any other programming skill. If you don't practice you aren't as skilled. I get sick of people complaining about doing thing right being too hard. You wouldn't say someone taking the time to use a relational database is wasted if it meant they didn't try to serve web sites from CSV files. Everyone sees different aspects of quality, and some of us have spent our time learning how to navigate the inconsistent waters of browser implementation to find the benefits than can be had. If that makes me a CSS troll, then I can live with it, warts and all.
