And, to add a data point, I have never used (or needed) neither

What you don't know you don't miss ;)


One nice feature in SASS is color manipulation: You can easily
lighten/darken colors and use constants for colors to easily generate
different color schemes.

Since GTK has switched to CSS, quite some themes use SASS to
easily provide different theme variants:

https://github.com/horst3180/arc-theme
...

OTOH I don't know if you really need these features in web applications.

One of my favorite feature is nesting. The following Sass:

nav {
  ul {
    margin: 0;
  }
}

Would be translated to the following CSS:

nav ul {
  margin: 0;
}
