CSS variables are still relatively new though, unsupported until about March 2018 in all browsers, yet the first commit over TailwindCSS is from Jul 20, 2017, nearly a year before browsers even supported the feature. Even today it seems like 11% of users doesn't have support for variables. Could make sense to add support for variables now, but for the sake of backward compatibility, it does make sense to keep it with classnames too.
I love though that as an engineer you would be hesitant to use Tailwind, but you are not aware of how new variables are.
I think Tailwind seems to make sense for any prototypes works and probably even an MVP for a company that still doesn't have a shared CSS that represent the style of the company.
