Tailwind is throwing a caniuse/browserslist outdated issue without using the CLI:

To repeat the issue:

1: Open a project, npm init -y => npm i -D tailwindcss
2: Initialize tailwind with npx tailwindcss init, and set up tailwind input file in current directory (input.css):
@tailwind base; @tailwind components; @tailwind utilities;
3: Set up start command: "start": "npx tailwindcss -i ./input.css -o ./output.css --watch",
4: That's it, error is

Browserslist: caniuse-lite is outdated. Please run:
npx update-browserslist-db@latest
Why you should do it regularly: https://github.com/browserslist/update-db#readme

This error doesn't happen with the tailwindcss-cli installed, running npx update-browserslist-db@latest does not fix it. I think it has to do with the bundle of tailwind, if the cli needs to be installed it should be updated on the docs, ideally though there shouldn't really need to be another package installed for it to work standalone. Stuff still rebuilds and it updates the classes fine without the CLI, but the error is everlasting without it.

After installing the tailwindcss-cli the error magically vanishes, even though the commands remain the same:
