Tailwind Class Order

Hello, i'm new to tailwind and trying to understand it better. I came across one of theo's video about tailwind in which he talked a bit about

declaration order

declaration order

. source.

How does tailwind solve the "declaration order" problem he talks about? I tried it myself with the following example:

    <p class="h-20 bg-blue-500 bg-red-500">Tailwind Test</p>

    <p class="h-20 bg-blue-500 bg-red-500">Tailwind Test</p>

Why does

bg-red-500

bg-red-500

always the one being applied regardless of the order? how does tailwind determine the order of classes?

Note: off-topic but it would also be great if someone could explain how tailwind actually scans and generates the css? is there some kind of processor?

Is Tailwind really the right default?

Tailwind is quickly taking over the entire style world to the point where it's now the default for most things. But is this a good thing?
