There are more "modern" ways to do this for large organizations like Storybook. Tailwind is a proposition for a small business that has a very small budget, want to buy a ready-theme and then make slight modifications. In a sense, no, it doesn't make any sense beyond that to use it. And once you use a good React/web-components framework, you realize there isn't really much value there as you shouldn't be really changing the CSS from page to another.
The process for large orgs is tedious and too lengthy/expensive for the small ones. Imagine having to go through planning, visualization, creating the component (or adding props for customization, writing e2e tests, publishing it to storybook with docs, and then finally adding it to your page and get it pipelined in the merge CI/CD process. A small org with tailwind just open the page in question and add a class to the html element.
