The Design System Ecosystem
It depends on the level of contribution.
You can contribute by responding to the discussions in the backlog[0], by improving the actual distributed styles and code[1] or suggesting improvements to the documentation in the link I posted above.
Bigger changes need to be backed up with user research, evidence of user needs and accessibility reviews and checks.

Can we at least modernize visually hidden?
However looking at the samples with modern browsers I was unable to see the overflow issue. So it might now be entirely possible that setting negative margin is not required anymore. And it happens to actually be harmful: negative margin can change the reading order in VoiceOver!

The impact of removing jQuery on our web performance
To that end, we're still in the process of dropping support for IE 8–10, along with reducing IE 11 to 'functional'—it doesn't always look the same, but users can still complete tasks.

What is the best way to develop a frontend using only HTML, CSS, Bootrap, JS w/o frameworks?
If you do want to use a framework and get up and running quickly, but you still want to know what's going on and have some ability to customize it, maybe you can start with one of the really minimal CSS frameworks like Milligram or Sakura and then add your own modifications.

Almond.css: Collection of CSS styles to make simple websites look nicer

Pico CSS Framework
I agree. That is why I actually just decided to use different css files for different themes in sakura.css [1] (it comes in at 3.8k / ~1.8k gzipped)
I also had friends who didn't want to understand CSS, and adding in media queries, variables, and dark mode support would only just confuse them even more.
