My main focus is JavaScript specialising in frontend UI with React. I like to explore different frameworks and technologies in my spare time. Learning languages (programming and real life) is a blast.

Just to be clear, this post is based on the perception of CSS that I have observed talking to other developers, attending events/meetups/conferences etc.
I agree with your points, CSS fulfils a particular purpose and I think it does a respectable job at it. I have often see devs new to frontend, try to solve their problem using JavaScript when there is a much easier solution with CSS and HTML. When they then approach CSS, there are complaints about why they can't do the same things they do in JS. Some of the underlying conflict with CSS, in my experience, is related to the perception of design. I have seen solutions like plain Bootstrap and Material Design be used instead of investing in design because it is seen as having a lower precedence.
