Themes vs css?

Hi;

I see the additional functionality that themes add. But it also seems to me
that if we use css instead of themes, then it's a lot easier for people to
change the look of our site as css is very well understood.

Any comments on how useful in practice the extra features of themes have been?

CSS files are usually part of a theme.
Rely on them as much as you wish.
