I try to avoid styling based on tag names [...] I prefer to assign specific classes.

That's precisely what I mean when I say prefer describing to naming: write selectors that describe an element (its tag name, position, its parents, etc.) instead of specifically naming them (aka. class and id selectors). That way you keep styling and markup clearly separated.

I try to avoid using "all" in transitions

Never used that and actually didn't even know that was a thing until recently.
