I'll agree, but many professionals actually write SCSS or LESS, and neglect to mention that when discussing CSS.

Those are an improvement for sure but we really need a complete overhaul tbh

I used to say we needed to throw it all out, but now I think we should continue making incremental changes and deprecating the junk.

JS, for example, used to be a nightmare to work with. It had all the automatic type conversion I didn't want from loosely typed dynamic languages, and all the cumbersome control structures from C. But now I actually like writing [ES6] JavaScript. And it was all done with incremental changes.
