So, #WebComponents. If we want to share stylesheets between the document and components and we have CSS module scripts... is there any reason to use <link rel="stylesheet"> anymore? Requesting a CSS module script from a blocking script in <head> (and then sharing the sheet between shadow roots and the main document) should be plenty fast, right?

@sir_pepe I don't think there's something inherently _wrong_ with this approach. However, there is _something_ to be said about the no script story of your content delivery. While it can feel overly dogmatic, the idea that JS _might_ not be available is something that should be taken into account to some degree. Whether this is the point at which that should be taken into account has much more to do with what it right for _your_ users than what is right for _apps at large_.

@westbrook 100%, this only applies at the intersection of "this requires JS to function" and "we care about performance"... which may very well not exist in the wild 🫠
