Should I learn SASS right now?

I have a solid understanding of front-end languages, and I'm eager to take my skills to the next level. Recently, I started using Tailwind for a project, and I found it incredibly useful. However, I'm wondering if I should learn SASS before fully committing to Tailwind. While I know SASS has a short learning curve, after experiencing Tailwind, I find the process of naming classes in CSS and SASS a bit tedious and less efficient.

sass? no scss? yes sass is the name of the project, but it is also the name of the god-awful python-esque monstruosity syntax

But to the OP point Tailwind is not something like sass or any other preprocessor.

tailwind is just 100% utility classes that are close to inline css
