Oh, yeah the templates are React/Next.js, but the components and things are not (they are what I described above). Templates are great but 95% of the value I get is the components and things

So, my initial reaction that "Tailwind Plus" only offers apparent value for React users is... entirely valid?
Only if you ignore this part of my comment:
> 95% of the value I get is the components and things
If you want (and only want) a pre-built site that just needs populated with content and maybe minor tweaks to things, then yeah it's React world. However I've rarely found that any template site (Tailwind or otherwise) is close enough to where it doesn't need medium to major surgery to meet my needs, at which point it's usually faster to just copy together components to what I actually want
> If you want (and only want) a pre-built site
No, I want to be able to @import "tailwindcss" without feeling guilty.
> I've rarely found that any template site
Well, meet https://basecoatui.com -- and there's more where that came from.
So, ehhm, no, I'm not ignoring the salient part of your comment: you are ignoring the entire point of my post, which is that if Tailwind had a non-React monetization strategy, things maybe, possibly, might have worked out better.
