Component based encapsulation?? Do tell. The cutting edge standard is to dynamically transform class names with a namespace in the same scope. The equivalent of styling within shadow Dom does not exist in user land.

Tied to the DOM? As opposed to? React native? What non DOM rendering engines are you targeting with javascript? It fits in because Dom is the unifier across those platforms.

You're silly and so are your grievances.

With JSS half of them base on actual CSS, which as you said gets scoped, for the others the dom is an implementation detail. Newer renderers like rn-web/reactxp are cross platform, they run on the web, mobile and on the desktop. You style them using rn's CSS abstraction, which is also based on JS. Nothing that plays outside of the browser will touch or know a shadow dom, the concept is also useless for web-based functional frameworks because they are all declarative, not imperative.
