For what I tested, it's more a step back to me than a revolution. I don't see where is the gain to give many classes to an element instead of giving it one or 2 classes and then apply the right CSS rules to that classes.

Maybe it can be cool with the latest frontend languages like vue or react that "encapsulate" some kind of components, but when you deal with standard html / css / javascript stack, it's more annoying than helping.

I knew the era of table design, then divs and CSS, I have the impression to go back where you put the style attribute directly on each elements (just replaced styles by classes).

I probably miss something
