Tell me how this statement is incorrect. Developers learn more about custom, federated styleguides and css using Tailwind vs using bootstrap. I get it, a strong css dev will see Tailwind generally as an unnecessary additional step when they could have just written the classes themselves, however when working in large teams on many projects it rarely matters how great one developers code is if nobody else can easily adopt it.

I wrote a bunch of CSS since 2007 and confident to write them fast and well. Tailwind just takes the writing part so I can prototype a layout or component with less time consumed if I were to write my own css for every project I have. You should have said:

Bootstrap gives you unnecessary pre-built components that you would probably overwrite anyway for every single project you have.

Now please define unnecessary.
