CSS vs JS is a case in point. JS’s complexity tends to come from systemic interactions between language structures whereas CSS complexity tends to come from interactions in the DOM. (Generalising a bit, but roughly.) If you come at CSS with the JS worldview in an environment where you don’t control the DOM you’re basically fucked as a learner and CSS will feel unpredictable and super complex.
