Jonathan has a nice follow-up to the CSS framework discussion here. At one point, he says:
It seems for many of the arguments either for or against CSS frameworks have a related counter-argument, which could be the reason this debate has been circular for so long.
Indeed. What it boils down to is that the decision whether or not to use a CSS framework (or whatever you want to call it) is a personal one. Therefore, it’s probably a bad idea for anyone to say definitively, “you should/shouldn’t be using CSS frameworks.” It’s roughly the same as saying, “you should/shouldn’t be using Fireworks instead of Photoshop” or “you should/shouldn’t be using the CSS shorthand properties (i.e. background instead of background-image and background-repeat).
They’re all just tools, and which one someone choose to use or not use is just personal preference. We should all probably just let people have their preferences in piece.
