Plugins like Emmet only help with writing less stuff. My problem with HTML and CSS is on a functional level. For something that exists for purely for presentation, it's not particularly good at its job. I mean, I can't even center content vertically without jumping through hoops for chrissake.

Everything feels like a hack, mainly because most of the time it is a hack. I know we must make do with what we have so I just suck it up and deal with it, but when I see people saying they love HTML/CSS, it boggles my mind. I mean, have you played with programming languages like Python, Go and even Rust to a certain extent? Those are languages that actually make coding fun, in my opinion of course. Flexbox gives me a ray of hope that things will get better.
I hate to be pedantic but you keep saying you're 'coding' HTML and to me it sounds similar to someone saying they're 'coding' Word documents. Yeah, I totally get the frustration. And I totally agree: HTML/CSS aren't great at the job of coding for a presentational layer. Especially HTML, which aches under the weight of it's origins. Maybe my source of enjoyment comes from the fact that I'm familiar enough with the quirks of HTML/CSS that I actually enjoy returning to problems like that. But maybe I'm funny like that. As older IE started to fade away I started to miss them, because I'd gotten good at working around their quirks.
I haven't played with Go or Rust, but I have worked with Python. I certainly do enjoy it to the extent that I understand it. Flexbox: yeah: I dig the idea. But for most of what I do it doesn't make enough sense to start using it. Not until I don't have to use a polyfill.

Not really sure what you mean there. Probably because I don't use Word? My own pedantic point would be that HTML/CSS is actually coding. Not in the same sense as 'programming', for sure.

But when we work with HTML/CSS are are producing code. I mean, it's sets of symbols that will be interpreted programatically by a parser.
