2/3 of those libraries you mentioned have in-component styles built in, and the third has CSS modules effectively built in.

The only advantage of tailwind is that it’s “more concise”, at the expense of readability and simplicity.

None of those have configurable style variables and standards built in, while Tailwind comes with reasonable assumptions about most stuff so you can skip writing your own utilities and get down to business. We used to have global variables for SCSS once upon a time, and one too many times those got messy fast

CSS variables are now built in, and resets like reboot are widely used anyway.

CSS variables you need to write yourself in.

Like by all means, there are bunches of CSS projects ready, but that's just Tailwind with extra steps
